Thanks for all those references. There's this statement in the first article: "Got a switch statement? The Python translation is a hash table, not a bunch of if-then statments. Got a bunch of if-then's that wouldn't be a switch statement in Java because strings are involved? It's still a hash table. " I can't figure out how would you translate a switch statement into hash table in general case. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
