Can Objective-C switch on NSString?

Question

Is there a more intelligent way to rewrite this?

if ([cardName isEqualToString:@\"Six\"]) {
    [self setValue:6];
} else if ([cardName isEqualToString:@\"Se

You can use macros approach to achieve it:

#define CASE(str)                       if ([__s__ isEqualToString:(str)]) 
#define SWITCH(s)                       for (NSString *__s__ = (s); ; )
#define DEFAULT   

SWITCH (string) {
    CASE (@"AAA") {
        break;
    }
    CASE (@"BBB") {
        break;
    }
    CASE (@"CCC") {
        break;
    }
    DEFAULT {
        break;
    }
 }
