A86: lookup table
Could someone give me a well-commented example of an efficient
lookup-table routine? I have a program that decodes DNA codons and
displays what amino acids they code for, so I have to look up
three-letter strings, made up of any combination of the letters C,G,A,
and T, and match them to the address of a string (the name of the amino)
to display. At first I was going to use a long list of CP's, but I've
done that in past programs and it is not only slow but also very space
consuming. Is there a smaller, faster routine that could do the same?
thanks,
