Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

If you see the REM, I force it to scan all 12 cases. If I let it action all cases, it's about 2ms quicker:

But now it's not 120,000 scans, obviously.

Still not convinced. Every basic normally executes just one CASE and has an implied break.

The first version does 10000 loops of one case and the second seems to do the same given that it executes at the same speed

What happens if you put a second loop?

for i=1 to 10000
for a=1 to 12

select.....

next a
next i

PS. Its is a great shame bypic don't post their source as they don't support it anymore. It would really fly if ported to one of the faster chips

In the first example, it's all scanning and no variable incrementing. In the second example, it's less scanning but a variable is being incremented.

I have ByPic for the MX370 @80MHz and 512K flash but I love the DIP 170 and I still have 130K+ flash.

Paid a penalty for the extra for/next. The inline code is very fast but any sort of a loop incurs a time penalty.
