Last case if a switch should be DEFAULT.. Good to have this case always. Executed only when there's no other matching cases found.

Thank You for the question Sanjeev, Yes you can skip break in the last switch statement but it is recommended to use break in each and every switch case even though that will be the last statement. Thank You, Team DishaaPro www.dishaapro.com

You should do so primarily because your program has a strong chance of being maintained by someone other than you who might add cases but neglect to notice that the last case has no break statement. read less

Not sure what you mean, but break statements in switch are optional and are convinient ways to make the execution fall through.
