+In this example, the `switch` statement is testing for the type of the value in
+the hashtable. You must use and expression that returns a boolean value to
+select the scriptblock to execute.
+
+```powershell
+$var = @{A = 10; B = 'abc'}
+
+foreach ($key in $var.Keys) {
+    switch ($var[$key].GetType()) {
+        { $_ -eq [int32]  }  { "$key + 10 = $($var[$key] + 10)" }
+        { $_ -eq [string] }  { "$key = $($var[$key])"           }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+```Output
+A + 10 = 20
+B = abc
+```

 In this example, an object that's not a string or numerical data is passed to
 the `switch`. The `switch` performs a string coercion on the object and
 evaluates the outcome.
