SELECT CASES ???

[Pete]

We have SELECT CASE and SELECT EVERYCASE, but does any language make use of SELECT CASES?

Example.

Let's say I have two coordinates y, and x

I can do...

Code: (Select All)

SELECT CASE y
    CASE IS > 0
        SELECT CASE x
            CASE IS > 0
            CASE IS = 0
            CASE IS < 0
        END SELECT

    CASE IS = 0

        SELECT CASE x
            CASE IS > 0
            CASE IS = 0
            CASE IS < 0
        END SELECT

    CASE IS < 0
        SELECT CASE x
            CASE IS > 0
            CASE IS = 0
            CASE IS < 0
        END SELECT
END SELECT

But wouldn't it be cool to just code it as:

Code: (Select All)

SELECT CASES y, X
CASE y IS > 0, x IS > 0
CASE y IS > 0, x = 0
CASE y IS > 0, x IS < 0

CASE y = 0, x IS > 0
CASE y = 0, x = 0
CASE y = 0, x IS < 0

CASE y IS < 0, x IS > 0
CASE y IS > 0, x = 0
CASE y IS < 0, x IS < 0
END SELECT
