Excellent Detective work Dar. It also reinforces a habit I'm trying to
develop when writing switch statements, and that

I catch a glance to the sky:
Running your tests, with "if then else" I saw 2 shooting stars; with
the "switch", only 1 ;-))

Hi,
I apologize ! Yesterday I was wrong about the time for "switch" ; I
copied your script but did not uncomment it :-O)
So, my result " 12-13" millisec was not the right one. I am sorry !
After fixing, actually, here
– for "If then else" : 94-96
– for "switch" : 50-52.

Yeah, I know what you mean. When I originally ran my comparisons

These tests involve numbers and Mark's tests involve numerals. Maybe

OK, I've basically run your scripts but instead of using your exact

So this is what is in one field:

Kay, I meant to check this out when I saw your post, but it's taken
me a little time to get to it. I'm pretty sure that for multiple
choice situations, a switch structure seems more efficient (ie.
faster) than an equivalent multi-way if-then-else structure.
I'd be interested to see if you g
