There's already a rejected PEP about a switch statement: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3103/. There's no point bringing this up again unless you have a new use case. There have been several promising posts to python-ideas about the much more powerful idea of a "match" statement. Please search for those before re-posting on python-ideas. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido)
