    Switch Statement


Create an HTML file named switch_js.html within the ~/vagrant-lamp/sites/codeup.dev/public folder on your Mac.


Add a <script> tag to your HTML to link up switch.js to your file.
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

	<head>
	
		<title>JavaScript Statements Switch</title>
		
		<meta charset="utf8">

	</head>


	<body>

		<script src="switch.js" ></script>
	</body>
	
</html>	
'use strict';
//see solutions below


The following line generates a random number between 0 and 5.


var luckyNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()* 6)
Now, suppose there's a promotion in Walmart, If your lucky number is 0 you
have no discount, if your lucky number is 1 you'll get a 10% discount, if
it's 2, discount is 25%, if it's 4, 50%, and if it's 5 you'll get all for
free!. Write a JS program that logs to the console, how much you will have to
pay if your receipt is for $60. Every time you reload your page you should
see a different result. Use a switch statement for this exercise.
	var luckyNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()* 6);
 var youpay = 60;
 var msg;
 
 switch(luckyNumber) {
 	case 0:
 		msg = 1
 		break; 
 	case 1:
 		msg = 0.1
 		break; 
 	case 2:
 		msg = 0.25
 		break; 
 	case 3:
 		msg = 0.35
 		break; 
 	case 4:
 		msg = 0.5
 		break; 
 	case 5:
 		msg = 0
 		break; 
 }
 
 msg = youpay*(1-msg);
 console.log("Here's what you owe: $"+msg);


Suppose you have been assigned a task and you need to convert a number to the
name of a month. 1 should be shown as January, 2 as February and so on. Using
a switch statement write the JS code that shows the names of the months in
the console.
var monthnum = Math.floor((Math.random()* 12)+1);
 var msg;

 switch(monthnum) {
 	case 1:
 		msg = "January"
 		break; 
 	case 2:
 		msg = "February"
 		break; 
 	case 3:
 		msg = "March"
 		break; 
 	case 4:
 		msg = "April"
 		break; 
 	case 5:
 		msg = "May"
 		break; 
 	case 6:
 		msg = "June"
 		break; 
 	case 7:
 		msg = "July"
 		break; 
 	case 8:
 		msg = "August"
 		break; 
 	case 9:
 		msg = "September"
 		break; 
 	case 10:
 		msg = "October"
 		break; 
 	case 11:
 		msg = "November"
 		break; 
 	case 12:
 		msg = "December"
 		break; 
 }

 console.log(monthnum+" is the month of "+msg);


Finally, save your work, commit the changes to your git repository, and push to GitHub.
