[Oberon] Numerical CASE Statements in Project Oberon

[Jan de Kruyf]

Douglas, hallo.

1. Me trying to keep my brain from bitrot by trying to do something nice.

2. Me finding a case statement easier and more elegant to program and
maintain than 'if then else'.

3. Me needing the odd discussion with you guys about some technical
challenge.

Are those needs valid enough? :)

Cheers,

j.
