⭐️ 注意： [for case let ... where](/ios/swift/pattern-matching/sentence-patterns/for-case-let-...-where.md) 加條件的方式跟 [if/guard case let](/ios/swift/pattern-matching/sentence-patterns/if-guard-case-let.md) 不一樣❗️
{% endhint %}

```swift
// ⭐ if case let
//          ╭───── ⭐ pattern ─────╮    ↱ ⭐ value
if case let Media.movie(title, _, _) = movie { ... }

// ⭐ if case let
if case let .loaded(data) = state, 
   data.isEmpty                        // ⭐ additional conditions
{ ... }

// ⭐ guard case let
guard 
    case let .loaded(data) = state, 
    data.isEmpty                        // ⭐ additional conditions
else { ... }
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="⭐️ 重點" %}
{% hint style="success" %}
it’s just a more **compact** syntax when **pattern-matching** <mark style="color:red;">**against one case**</mark> ...&#x20;

```swift
// if case let
if case let pattern = value { ... }

// is equivalent to 
switch value { 
    case let pattern: ...
    // other cases
}
```

```swift
// if case let
if case let .person(name, age) = joe { ... }
// is equivalent to
if case .person(let name, let age) = joe { ... }
