We can do this:
So why can't we do this?

Unless I'm missing something, those two would perform exactly the same in any situation? What can't you do?

> So why can't we do this?

Because "Default" means anything left over after all other cases are evaluated.
It would defeat the point of having a "Default" keyword if you could evaluate
other conditions with it.

kenmo is right:
In the first example, Default includes all cases apart from a, b, c. That means, Default does include case d. So there is no difference and no advantage in explicitely writing down case d, as in the second example.

Yeah, sorry, couldn't resist I seem to have a somewhat wacko sense of humor

Yes, i did mean to type b r a i n.

To be honest, it's becoming more and more difficult for me to function as a human lately due to my lack of b r a i n power. My abilities to focus and concentrate are dwindling and it's starting to show.

I went to the doctor earlier this week and he's pretty sure I have sleep apnea. I will find out for sure next week. It's been month's since I've had a good nights sleep.... I am SO looking forward to getting my b r a i n back to it's normal state where the brian farts are far and few between.
