In D3 for subroutines that are called "often" (either within a program,
or a system if you use common) then a construct like
<snip>
This *was* true for Prime Information. Plus had the additional benefit
of being able to specify routines at run time.
Example:
BEGIN CASE
CASE COMPANY EQ "ALPHA"
PAYROLL = "PAYROLL.ALPHA"
CASE COMPANY EQ "BETA"
PAYROLL - "PAYROLL.BETA"
END CASE
CALL @PAYROLL (A, B, C, D)
I don't think it's applicable for Universe, at least in terms of speed
but the choice of routines is still useful.
