so I think no /current/ keywords would be allowed either... I see.
Anything that spells 'statement' is indeed going to meet with fierce resistance.
What of
x := ( condition, true:=truevalue, false:=falsevalue);
Apart from any parsing difficulties this may present, what is the benefit over
x:=condition ? truevalue : falsevalue
The latter being the generally used one ?
That it's C, not Pascal ;) and, um. sorry I do not have a c spec on hand,
does it really work that way in C - only evaluates truevalue or falsevalue not
both?
I don't know about C (don't know if it actually has it?),
but definitely in C++ and JavaScript
And please remember, we do not NEED this construct; the added value is marginal
as I indicated.
Simply not adding is an option. Not all change is necessarily progress.
Michael.
