The functional if obviously MUST have the else branch: you have
to provide a value for both the true and false conditions.
The "endif" is there to ensure the language is unambiguous.
If you're writing
if x then y else {} endif;
you could be using the procedural if:
if x do y; done;
You still need a terminator "done;" to ensure the language
isn't ambiguous in the general form, however the else branch
is not required (assumed to be {} as you requested).
There are some short forms of this:
if x goto y;
if x call y(..);
doesn't require the terminator for example.
Check in lib/nugram.flxh for a complete list.
