It's easy to cover all the values in a switch, using ranges.
Not as easy as you would think:
int i;
switch(i) {
case 0: .. case 9:
break;
case 10: ..case 10000000:
break;
default:
break;
}
--> Error: had 9999990 cases which is more than 256 cases in
case range
The FE always lowers CaseRangeStatements into a list of CaseStatements, so LDC currently has the same limitation.
