Here's what I do, and for your purposes it works the same as an actual
case statement:

:int 9rand\->\R
:"zero one  two  threefour five six  seveneight"\->\S
:Disp sub(S,5R+1,5

OR

:int 9rand\->\R
:Disp sub("zero one  two  threefour five six  seveneight",5R+1,5

Either way will work the same, you just need to use the first way if you
use the same string more than once.

If you're wanting a way on the 82, sorry there isn't one(no string
variables, just string literals).
