<br>Hi, I'm wondering which would provide faster processing time based on the web page I'm building.<br><br>I have a variable, let's call it $num. $num is an int that can be anywhere from 1 to 80. Based on $num's value, an array is assigned that is then used on the web page. Since this is for a web page, I want to minimize the wait time as much as possible, and I'm guessing that this could be a potential bottleneck. I have not written the code yet, so I can't compare load times. I'm considering this more of a "do it the preferred way the first time".<br>
<br>So I'm curious as to which would be faster, a simple switch with 80 possible cases, or a "nested if" that uses a sorting algorithm; or perhaps even more plausible, a combination of the two.<br><br>Any random thoughts are appreciated :)<br clear="all">
