I have to disagree with that since I know spending time with friends, family, or otherwise having a good time (day) is a really good thing and a day spend having fun and stuff isn't a waste of time in my opinion.
Even a day on which you sleep 24 hours isn't a waste of time since your body does all kinds of things when you sleep (grow, heal, etc.) and your mind can do some nice things while sleeping too, espesially if realise you're dreaming/sleeping and can take control over your dream.
But let's get back to if..then.else statements  .

which one of these are faster?
1. If A=1:2->B
2. If A=1:Then
2->B
End
3.(A=1)2->B |

3 is always faster
2 is second
1 is the slowest |

(A=1)2->B is definetly faster, don't forget you can save a byte by doing:
2(A=1->B |

| if A is just 1 or 0, then u could do just 2A->B and make it even faster! (and smaller!) |

one thing i need to point out:
if u use 2(A=1->B or 2A->B, B will always be 2 or 0
if u use if A=1:2->B or if A=1:then:2->B:end then B will either be 2 or what ever it was bfore the statement. |

A new use for If statements:
Code:
:Repeat 0
(some code)
:If X=0
:End
(some more code)
:End
If X=0. then 'some more code' would not be executed. |

| I tried a time test, but for me the if:stuff was faster than the if:then:stuff:end, when "stuff" is a statement. Why does the calc processor search for an end if it doesn't see a then? |

On my calculator (TI-83 Plus Silver Edition, low batteries warning appeared once a couple of days ago), I did a time test, here are the results:
The condition was 1>0, the statement was sin(X) where X was the for loop variable
The if-then did 500 loops in 11 seconds, the if in 10 seconds.
The condition was 1<0, the statement was the same
The if-then did 500 loops in 4 seconds, the if in 12 seconds.
The condition was X<250, the statement was the same
The if-then did 500 loops in 7 seconds, the if in 8 seconds.
In conclusion, the if-then is faster when the condition is likely to be false. But when the condition is likely to be true most of the time, if would work better. If the condition is equally likely to be true or false, if-then has a slight advantage in speed.
B+(A=1)(2-B -> B would work to leave the old value of B if A <> 1
