Spoiled by Ruby
I've been doing a lot of Ruby work lately and love the concise yet readable syntax. But its also tainting my appreciation for other languages. Instead of writing this in Ruby...
return if (!something)
... PHP/Delphi/C++ makes me write something like this:
if (!something) {
return false;
}
return false;
}
Of course you can pull off this one-liner PHP/C++, but its nowhere near as readable as the Ruby version, especially when something is an expression of any complexity.
if (!something) return false;
Ah well.
