Template:Select parameter
{{{{{{n}}}}}}
This simple template provides an alternative to using a switch statement. Instead, it may be replaced by a call to this template. This allows the syntax to be simplified slightly by using unnamed parameters.
Usage
[edit source]Instead of using the following:
{{#switch:{{{n}}}
|1=entry1
|2=entry2
|3=entry3
...
}}
the following may be used:
{{Select parameter|n={{{n}}}
|entry1
|entry2
|entry3
...
}}
The only named parameter {{{n}}} which is passed to this template should be a natural number.
