Strange, but in Java that’s how switch works.

In the following program, once numOfballs falls in the 1st case, all the rst cases will be visited regardless the condition.

public class App {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

      var numOfBalls = 1;
      switch (numOfBalls) {
          case 1:  System.out.println("One ball");
          case 2:  System.out.println("Two balls");
          case 3:  System.out.println("Three balls");
          case 4:  System.out.println("Four balls");
          case 5:  System.out.println("Five balls");
      } 
    }
}
