No, not if you use case. But you can do better with a simple if, in this particular case.<div><br></div><div>if n == 3 || n == 4</div><div>then "Something"</div><div>else "Other"</div><div><br></div><div>
Or even,</div><div><br></div><div>if n `elem` [3,4]</div><div>them "Something"</div><div>else "Other"</div><div><br></div><div>HTH,</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 1 November 2010 15:59, Angel Alonso <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:alderzdev@gmail.com">alderzdev@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
I have the following piece of code:<br>
<br>
n = 3<br>
case n of<br>
3 -> "Something"<br>
4 -> "Something"<br>
_ -> "Other"<br>
<br>
Is it possible to shorten the case statement into something like this?:<br>
<br>
n = 3<br>
case n of<br>
3 or 4 -> "Something"<br>
_ -> "Other"<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
