Alternative to the “switch” Statement

Question

I do not want to use Switch in my code, so I\'m looking for some alternative

Example with Switch:

function write(what) {

  switch(w         


        

Answer 1

You are pretty much there already. If possible you might want to add a helper function to make the setup easier. For Example:

function setup(what)
{
    colors[what] = function() { alert(what); };
}

EDIT:
If what you want to do for each option is more complicated clearly this will not work. As mentioned in the comments by @roe this uses the global colors which is often frowned upon.
