 Come one how many people here dont use jump table instead of multi cmp?
 An example would be for instruction encoding for a compiler.
 Intead of up to 16 test (that would have been done in probability
 usage) you replace it by 10 instruction (with an offset jump table).

 The C compiler need to ANDERSTAND what you are doing for it to do
 'perfect' compilation.
 Soembody wrote the C compiler anyway.
