Re: Select/When vs. If/ElseIf


Is there a difference to these two types of condition checking? 

No, there's absolutely no difference.

They seem identical in function at a high level, so I'm unsure if one is
better performance-wise or something.  I guess I'm looking for something
to distinguish the two so I know when to use one and when to use the
other.

There's no difference, they do exactly the same thing. Some people think that "if/elseif" is easier to read. Others prefer "select/when".

Use whichever one you think is easier on the eyes.
