Best way to write a function to do something like this

[szlamany]

I am not totally familiar with all the different syntax constructs for doing something like this - I started with the SWITCH version

	bool isPunc(int &cc) {
		switch (cc) {
			case cDash:
				return true;
				break;
			case cPeriod:
				return true;
				break;
			case cSpace:
				return true;
				break;
			default:
				return false;
				break;
		}
	}

First question - those BREAK; statements aren't really needed - or maybe it just isn't a good practice to do RETURN's from CASE statements?

At any rate - I guess I could have just declare a BOOL and set it as TRUE in each CASE - then simply return that BOOL...

But then I thought of doing it this way.

	bool isPunc(int &cc) {
		if (cc == cDash) {
			return true;
		} else if (cc == cPeriod) {
			return true;
		} else if (cc == cSpace) {
			return true;
		} else {
			return false;
		}
	}

Opinions?

Better methods??

Other C++ syntax that I'm not aware of that is better suited for this type of simple check??
