back again with another question in C. i'm having some issues with my switch statements. my program is compiling and running its even storing the correct values in the correct variables and running through the switch statements as it should EXCEPT when it comes to print out specific output. please keep in mind i am trying to learn and my knowledge is very basic. i appreciate all your help in this fascinating community and i ask that your responses if any would help me learn more!
without further ado here comes a wall of coded text!
