How Do I Use The Application Switcher?

Question:

What are all the keyboard shortcuts for the application switcher in Mac OS X?
- Asked by Teresa C. February 25th, 2011 (Updated: December 9th, 2014)

Answer:

In Mac OS X you can press Command-Tab to switch to the last program used. You can switch through all open applications by holding Command and tapping Tab until you have selected the desired application. You can quit an application in the application switcher pressing Q after holding Command and tapping Tab to highlight the application. Repeat the same process to hide an application except press H instead of Q.
