* The ngSwitch directive is used to conditionally swap DOM structure on your template based on a scope expression.
* Elements within ngSwitch but without ngSwitchWhen or ngSwitchDefault directives will be preserved at the location
* The `ngSwitch` directive is used to conditionally swap DOM structure on your template based on a scope expression.
* Elements within `ngSwitch` but without `ngSwitchWhen` or `ngSwitchDefault` directives will be preserved at the location
* as specified in the template.
*
* The directive itself works similar to ngInclude, however, instead of downloading template code (or loading it
* from the template cache), ngSwitch simply choses one of the nested elements and makes it visible based on which element
* from the template cache), `ngSwitch` simply choses one of the nested elements and makes it visible based on which element
* matches the value obtained from the evaluated expression. In other words, you define a container element
* (where you place the directive), place an expression on the **on="..." attribute**
* (or the **ng-switch="..." attribute**), define any inner elements inside of the directive and place
* (where you place the directive), place an expression on the **`on="..."` attribute**
* (or the **`ng-switch="..."` attribute**), define any inner elements inside of the directive and place
* a when attribute per element. The when attribute is used to inform ngSwitch which element to display when the on
* expression is evaluated. If a matching expression is not found via a when attribute then an element with the default
* attribute is displayed.
*
* <div class="alert alert-info">
* Be aware that the attribute values to match against cannot be expressions. They are interpreted
* as literal string values to match against.
* For example, **`ng-switch-when="someVal"`** will match against the string `"someVal"` not against the
* value of the expression `$scope.someVal`.
