Answer / mohemmed bilal
main difference between both statement is that we can only
use switch for one variable eg
switch(x)
{
case 1://do this;
case 2://do this;
case 3://do this;
}
while in if else we can use multiple condition like
if(x==0&&y==0)
{
printf("");
}
else if(x==1&&y==0)
{
printf("");
}

if else
is nothing but private variables.
structure is nothing but continuous allocation and public
variables and dissimilar data type.

Answer / subbu
Basically while coding developers prefer Switch rather than
If-Else.
But inturn switch gets transferred to IF-ELSe format during
compilation.
