@Raul: It bothered me too that 'if' and 'unless' had the same definition.
I considered moving the negation to 'if', which would make 'then' and
'else' the same.
I hadn't imagined using this without an 'else' block, or trying to nest
them,
since there's only so much room on one line... But anothe

This is neat, but I have a hard time reading English words right to left,

The conflicts start happening when get into variants and try making
them work together.
This kind of process inherently leads to ambiguities and of course the
computer has to have predefined rules that it will use to resolve
them. It takes some thought to decide how to best resolve those
ambiguiti

Thanks, but it was pretty readable. :) Once I understood `:6 I

the :. trick from Michal is cute.
Here is how I would li

It was clear, but... I must admit that I jumped right into coding

Here's an implementation of your if/then/else variant:

then=: 2 :0

if=: ]
a =: assert

a 4 1 0 2 4 -: (if (<0:) then (*: else +:)) i:2

Wow, thanks! I had considered using a gerund but didn't realize I
could use "_ to
handle both nouns and verbs uniformly. Very cool. :)

Do you also want to see an implementation for your alternate proposal?
Thanks,

There are nicer ways to make this output,
but how would you code 'if' and 'else' above?
Or... 'if'/'then'/'else' below, if you prefer?
a =: assert
a 4 1 0 2 4 -: if (<0:) then (*: else +:) i:2
a 4 1 0 2 4
