Compound Dispatch
An alternative is to arithmetically combine the numerical encodings into a single cross-product choice.

|
| The program requires one of several alternative behaviors as indicated by several numerically encoded choices. Therefore: | |
|
Dispatch to handlers based on the first encoding. Then let each handler further dispatch on the second (and subsequent) choices. |
| Some handlers may not require a full dispatch.
