Which 'if' Statement Is More Efficient?
I am just wondering which statement is more efficient and recommended to use. I don't care about the code, I just want to know for future reference which way is better.
1:
1 | if game.Players[spawnNPC.Data.Owner.Value].Days.Value < 3 then |
2 | foodToChoose = tier_1_tab |
3 | end |
4 |
5 | if game.Players[spawnNPC.Data.Owner.Value].Days.Value < 5 then |
6 | foodToChoose = tier_2_tab |
7 | end |
2:
1 | if game.Players[spawnNPC.Data.Owner.Value].Days.Value < 3 then |
2 | foodToChoose = tier_1_tab |
3 | elseif game.Players[spawnNPC.Data.Owner.Value].Days.Value < 5 then |
4 | foodToChoose = tier_2_tab |
5 | end |

The 2nd one. But you would have to check the higher numbers first,
1 | if game.Players[spawnNPC.Data.Owner.Value].Days.Value < 5 then |
2 | foodToChoose = tier_2_tab |
3 | elseif game.Players[spawnNPC.Data.Owner.Value].Days.Value < 3 then |
4 | foodToChoose = tier_1_tab |
5 | end |
So basically, if that value is higher than 5, no need to check for 3. If its not higher than 5, then check the next statement.

Also if you want the 5 to be included, put <=. How your statement is right now it's 6 or higher. Unless thats how you want it. dirk2999 103 — 6y
