Having read over all the vox populi thread, it seems to me: * It's another way to do something that can already be done. * It tends to obfusticate. * It's not really all that much a savings in typing. * It complicates the parser and thus makes room for more bugs. * Some of the examples given confuse me as to whether or not a ternary op is being introduced or a postfix condition, i.e: if a unless b:... (if a if not b:...). * No compelling use case that demonstrates correcting a limitation of the language. * No compelling use case that demonstrates an important new feature for the language. ternary op: -1 David LeBlanc Seattle, WA USA
