Advice

I'm newer to C++, but not new to programming. Is there any possibility of getting something similar-looking to a C# style switch expression in C++? In C# there is this style of pattern matching with switch-looking statements (Microsoft Docs):

var value = rand.Next(10) switch 
{
    <3 => "apple (30%)",
    <7 => "banana (40%)",
    _ => "orange (30%)"
};

There are more intricate applications than this, but I figured it was enough for an example. Does something like this exist, in the standard library or elsewhere, or is an if-else ladder the only way to achieve any type of "pattern matching"?
