Switch statements: do you need the last break? (Javascript mainly)
- by Jon Raasch
When using a switch() statement, you add break; in between separate case: declarations. But what about the last one?
Normally I just leave it off, but I'm wondering if this has some performance implication I'm not thinking about?
I've been wondering about this for a while and don't see it asked elsewhere on Stack-O, but sorry if I missed it.
I'm mainly asking this question regarding Javascript, although I'm guessing the answer will apply to all switch() statements.
