What does break do in a switch?
Short answer. It ends that case.
What does default mean?
No case matched.
Remember
| break ends each case |
| No break: falls through |
| default: no match |
One missing word in a switch prints extra lines. Which? Break. Without break, case two falls into case three. So it prints Two Three. Add break after each case. Break ends a case. Without it, code falls through. Default means no match.
