gollark: I was going to have `let printed` at the top then changed my mind.

gollark: Oh, yes, silly me.

gollark: ```javascriptconst printNumber = n => { switch(n) { case 0: return "zero"; //break; case 1: return "one"; //break; case 2: return "two"; //break; case 3: return "three"; //break; default: return "many"; }}```That's much longer, and uglier, especially with the breaks (not needed in this example, but generally will be).

gollark: I could provide a more complicated example, but discord is bad for that.
