shorter conditionals in js

Question

I have conditionals like this:

if (foo == 'fgfg' || foo == 'asdf' || foo == 'adsfasdf') {
// do stuff

}

Surely there's a faster way to write this?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You might consider a switch-case statement

switch(foo) {
  case "fgfg":
  case "asdf":
  case "adsfasdf":
    // ...
}

It's not really any shorter, but could be more readable depending on how many conditions you use.
