switch is faster because when in nested if condition has to
check for each time. where as in switch it diectly check
only labels.

According to me, switch is faster. cause in nested if-
else, the checking occurs in each step. So, more the
compiler checks, the more it takes time. So switch case is
faster.

Answer / vignesh1988i
as for as me is concerned switch is faster....
in if-else first it will check the if condition , if it is
true it's no problem.. but if it falls false, it will go
to the else part ...
but in switch case , the argument given inside switch
statement will see and automatically to the necessary case
of it... so by comaring the time constraint ,switch saves
the time for checking each else statement for every if....
thank u

Answer / deepak upadhyay
switch statement is more faster and consumes less memory
than if-else statement the reason being that the switch
statement is applied when we have a single variable to
check but in case of if-else different variable may be
checked at the same time.
