1. A method comprising: receiving, by a single instruction multiple data (SIMD) information handling system (IHS), source code information; identifying, by the SIMD IHS, within the source code information an if-then-else statement opportunity for conversion to first and second branch statements, wherein the first branch statement is a conditional branch and prepare statement, wherein the second branch statement is a branch return statement; and converting, by the SIMD IHS, the if-then-else statement opportunity into the first and second branch statements, thus generating compiled code information.
