Implementation of 'Analysis Toolpak' Excel function SWITCH()

The SWITCH function evaluates one value (called the expression) against a list of values, and returns the result corresponding to the first matching value. If there is no match, an optional default value may be returned.

Syntax
SWITCHSWITCH(expression, value1, result1, [default or value2, result2],…[default or value3, result3])
