How would I go about switching this script to a switch statement, with the generated random value (1-10) displaying the correct website.

Any help is appreciated.

if (value%2 == 0){
Random = value;
}

document.write(n_2 + " " +"http://www.msn.com"+"<br>");

I tried to complete the script myself, but I'm unsure of how to make all other numbers besides 2,4,6,and 8 to go to http://www.google.com or even get it to run.

default:
document.write("<b>http://www.google.com</b>")
