And do you realise that every sentence in your post is matter your your persona taste. It is extremely subjective, and you provide no proof that majority of people who are interested in all this share your opinion, do you? Do not get me wrong, I am not defending Andrei here (he can defend himself better than me). It is just shocking sometimes what kind of non-sense is posted here.

Yes, they're obviously opinions. I wouldn't use phrasing like that if I wasn't trying to demonstrate my strong opinion on the matter.

I only raised some details that are annoying me, I didn't say I had any science to show it was a majority opinion. I'm not sure why that's necessary to make an opinion oriented post.

A large part of the reason for posting in the first place is to find if/how many people also feel that way. That's the nature of opinions, I don't know what other peoples are until I talk about it.

Let me dodge back few quotes of your post back at you to think about what I said in the paragraph above:
1) "built on a rubbish foundation"
2) "less shit" (no comment here...!)
3) "nobody knows how to format 'case' statements" (well, if you do not know, there are people who do)
4) "The ugliness of the syntax" (again your own taste)

If you scan your own post(s), you will find many examples of what I am saying. This attitude of yours won't get you far.

Well, I firmly stand by all those convictions. They also look worse out of context.

I don't think switch is particularly good, and firmly believe C's switch statement was (is) a design catastrophe. I've believed that for 20 years. You're welcome to disagree, and tell me why you do. I might even change my opinion if someone can convince me it's awesome the way it is for some reason.

I've spent 3 days basically writing switch statements. I haven't enjoyed it, and I feel the experience is a big missed opportunity.
