No. I have considered adding something like this, but probably with a
syntax that matches the current language a little better, maybe using
switch and endswitch keywords.
For now, you have to use if/elseif/else/endif.
I believe that the MathWorks web site mentions that MATLAB 5 supports
a switch statement. Does anyone know what syntax it uses?
Thanks,
