Comparisions using ternary operator vs if else vs switch case (Performance)
if-statement, java, performance, switch-statement, ternary-operator
Solution
If `switch` < `if-then-else` and `if-then-else` == `ternary`, then `switch` < `ternary`.
Problem
I was searching for if-else vs ternary operator vs switch case but could not find any post with all the three comparisons. However, I came across some good posts and found that switch-case is faster than if-else. You may check the below one: Why switch is faster than if Then I came across some posts which said that there is no performance difference between if-else and the ternary operator. One of the most relevant posts is the following: ternary operator vs. if statement: question of prettiness? However, I did not find any relevant posts for switch-case vs ternary operator. So, I just want to know if I can conclude that switch case is faster than both ternary operator and if-else? I know this is a silly question but I want to know the answer.
