Oh no ! ;-) I have only recently got round to using switch statements, to improve code legibility. In my current/first embedded project, I happen to have a very long (25 cases, 160 lines long) switch statement.. I dread to think what it would like if I had to replace it (what else with ?) with nested if's ! How readable would that be... not to mention that with indentation, 25 levels of nesting would mean the last case would be 3 meters on the far right... ;-) Any coding tips to make all this look about readable by human beings ?! ;-/ -- Vince, catastrophed... _______________________________________________ AVR-GCC-list mailing list AVR-GCC-list@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avr-gcc-list
