Note Submitter: Anonymous ---- Notice that "if" is (Tested on PHP-5.3.0 with 4 cases and default) around 8.8% faster than "switch". <?php function sTest($a, $b, $c, $d) { switch(true) { case $a: return $a; case $b: return $b; case $c: return $c; case $d: return $d; default: return false; } } function iTest($a, $b, $c, $d) { if($a) return $a; else if($b) return $b; else if($c) return $c; else if($d) return $d; else return; } $microtime = microtime(true); $testFunction = $argv[1]; for($i = 0; $i < 655360; $i++) { for($e = 0; $e < 8; $e++) $testFunction($e == 0, $e == 1, $e == 2, $e == 3); } echo "{$testFunction} used " . (microtime(true) - $microtime) . " Seconds for Calculation...\n"; ?>
