Also, note that I personally prefer the two letter comparators (EQ, NE, etc.) to improve readability as it provides some differentiation between the assignment and comparator operators.

Allong these lines, I try to use a technique from my C days: Put the constant on the left:
        "Y" = theVar
This way, if something happens and the boolean context is lost, you'll get a compiler error and not a hidden assignment that could be hard to find. It's not as useful because mvBASIC doesn't use == for comparison and = for assignment, so you're less likely to have and accidental assigment, but it doesn't hurt, if you can develop the habit.
