Having two <code>cases</code> in the same <code>switch</code> statement or branches in the same <code>if</code> structure with the same implementation is at best duplicate code, and at worst a coding error. If the same logic is truly needed for both instances, then they should be combined.

== Exceptions
|
||
|
|

|
<code>case</code> labels that declare variables cannot have multiple patterns. Therefore this situation is ignored.

switch a {

case .STR_CASE(let x):
|
||

print(x)

print(x)

default:

print("default")

}

Blocks in an <code>if</code> chain that contain a single line of code are ignored, as are blocks in a <code>switch</code> statement that contain a single line of code with or without a following <code>break</code>.

But this exception does not apply to <code>if</code> chains without <code>else</code>-s, or to <code>switch</code>-es without default clauses when all branches have the same single line of code. In case of <code>if</code> chains with <code>else</code>-s, or of <code>switch</code>-es with default clauses, rule S3923 raises a bug.
