What shall there be missing? breaks? You noticed, that I defined some artificial architecture on purpose. "days_in_month 12:" tells it, that the next 12 blurps are tabular data, that can be indexed. If the "interpreter" hits the line "days_in_month 12:" it will unconditionally jump 12 instructions forward, where it hits the assign instruction, which assignes a value from a table by an index given into a variable. We're not talking about Python here. I introduced this "architecture" just to showcase that even in the most "optimal" situation, where special RISC operations are avaliable a LUT is still better suited.
