Abstract

Selection statements -- if-then-else, switch and try-catch -- are commonly used in modern imperative programming languages. We propose another selection statement called a \it choice existentially quantified statement. This statement turns out to be quite useful for pattern matching among several merits. Examples will be provided for this statement.
