Hello,


Could any one give me references to web-sites / papers / books
which discuss the optimization of the "switch" stmt in C?


GNU CC generates a switch table, a binary search, or a linear
search for a switch stmt. I want to understand the exact algorithm.
Any help is greatly appreciated.


Thanks and regards,
Mayur
