She's the department head. Preparation, I guess.
Honestly, it seems to me like she was just trying to be difficult. Like Cthulhu said, there's no point in optimizing that code. Using if statements are just as valid a way of writing it, and in fact might be the more preferable way of writing it since it's more obvious to people what the code does.
