I have a question about whether "if" or something else would be best to use.

I am taking a value that is inputted by the user and depending what the number is, a different response will be given.  For example, if the number 30 is entered there will be one response or if a 50 is entered it will be something else.  My first thought would be to use if/ifelse, but I didn't know if there would be something better to use.  The numbers will go up to about 150 in increments of five.

 

I am fairly new to php, and any help would be great,

Joseph

You could use a switch statement. http://php.net/manual/en/control-structures.switch.php

 

switch ($number) {
case 30:
   //response one
   break;

case 50:
   //response two
   break;

   //etc
}

After looking at it, switch seems like it would be the better alternative.

 

Thank you for your help.
