Skal's coefficient coding can be made branchless too by using conditional
assignment (will have to be done in assembly for those not using the intel
compiler) to select between a code from lookup and a FLC code ... would your
solution be faster? For encoding it seems hard to beat, with the small 2*64*64
entry tables lookup should be fast and FLC coding should take about as much time
time as a single BSR instruction.
