One thing worth noting is switch statement uses strict equality (===)
therefore it's not exactly the same as if/else with equality (==).

Hi guys
quick question that came up in a conversation I had the other day -
are switch statements more or less efficient than a series of
if...else statements in either AS2 or AS3?
I'd always thought that the most efficient was the switch
I doubt that there's anything in it - the compiler writes your if
statement for you with a switch statement.
It would be better to be more concerned about readability and
maintainability, where the switch statement will win hands down for many
cases.. ;-)
