Using' select case 'here, we can create a basic calculator, where we perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations.
Program :
Below is the source code for creating a simple calculator using "select case". The program given is compiled and successfully executed.
Example
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim choice As Integer
Dim num1 As Integer = 0
Dim num2 As Integer = 0
Dim result As Integer = 0
Console.WriteLine("*************************")
Console.WriteLine(" 1: Addition")
Console.WriteLine(" 2: Subtraction")
Console.WriteLine(" 3: Multiplication")
Console.WriteLine(" 4: Division")
Console.WriteLine("*************************")
Console.Write("Enter choice: ")
choice = Integer.Parse(Console.ReadLine())
Console.Write("Enter number1: ")
num1 = Integer.Parse(Console.ReadLine())
Console.Write("Enter number2: ")
num2 = Integer.Parse(Console.ReadLine())
Select Case choice
Case 1
result = num1 + num2
Case 2
result = num1 - num2
Case 3
result = num1 * num2
Case 3
result = num1 / num2
Case Else
Console.WriteLine("Invalid choice")
End Select
Console.WriteLine("Result: {0}", result)
End Sub
End Module
Explanation:
We created a Module1 module in the program above that contains the Main() method. We created four variables, num1, num2, and result, in the Main() method.
We have specified "select case" in the program above to execute the operation. We select the 3rd case here, perform the multiplication operation and print the result on the screen of the console.
