But neither is RPG's form of SELECT either Joe. In fact it is one of
the reasons why I don't like the RPG implementation - the languages in
which I first met SELECT used the case form - and that is where my
"mental model" was formed I guess.
Subsequently I find I only use SELECT when using simple case
constructs and use IF/ELSEIF for those cases where the condition
changes.
In languages where ELSEIF is not supported ELSE followed by IF will
be. Not as elegant but ...
I guess we are all somewhat enslaved by our own particular mental
models.
