# 0104: Expected a value for the switch case

Compiler expected a value to follow the `case` keyword but found something else.

This error may occur if left `case` alone on the line:

```pascal
switch 0@
  case
end
```

**Possible solutions:**

* make sure you follow the [switch statement](/language/control-flow/switch.md) syntax and provide a value compatible with the switch variable, i.e. a number or a string. Values can be comma-delimited if they work for the same case.

```pascal
switch 0@
   case 1, 2, 3
     0ace: "Value is 1, 2, or 3"
   case 5
     0ace: "Value is 5"
   default
     0ace: "Value is not 1, 2, 3, or 5"
end
```
