How could I tell the switch to perform a action when a value is false? For instance:

case != 37:
blah blah

Any pre-built way to do this???

I have a question. So is break then a replacement for using if/else? Like would the alternative to this be, "If a is selected then whatever" else if "b is selected, whatever" else if neither a or b is selected, this happens instead.

yes, rather than using a ; to signify an end of line, it uses a : to signify that the next section is different.
the : and break; act similarly to curly brackets in functions.
this description might not be 100% technically accurate, but it works ;D

good tut, simple and to the point. I hate it when people post beginner tuts and end up adding WAY more info than anybody needs or whats to know. This was refreshing.

so is it cool that there is no ; at the end of the line in the default statement?

Stupid me. (it's been a long day)

If (function()) <-- works

switch (function()) <-- it would appear, doesn't
