A method of flowing a current selectively with a nonvolatile switching device according to the present disclosure includes a step of configuring, in the nonvolatile switching device, any one of a first state in which a current does not flow between the electrode group, a second state in which a current flows selectively between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a third state in which a current flows selectively between the first electrode and the third electrode. When any one of the first state, the second state and the third state is configured, voltages V1, Va, Vb and Vc, which satisfy predetermined inequality set corresponding to the one of the first to third states, are applied to the control electrode, the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode, respectively.
