# E0347: duplicated case clause in switch statement

It's common to copy-paste case clauses when writing switch statements, but this could lead to duplicated expressions in the switch cases by accident. For example, in the code below, there's a duplicated case with the expression '*' when '+' was clearly intended.

    function compute(operator, firstNumber, secondNumber) {
      switch (operator) {
        case '*':
          return firstNumber * secondNumber;
        case '-':
          return firstNumber - secondNumber;
        case '*':
          return firstNumber + secondNumber;
      }
    }

To fix this warning, we need to replace the expression '*' in the last switch case with the expression '+'

    function compute(operator, firstNumber, secondNumber) {
      switch (operator) {
        case '*':
          return firstNumber * secondNumber;
        case '-':
          return firstNumber - secondNumber;
        case '+':
          return firstNumber + secondNumber;
      }
    }
