I hope when people talk about me when this thread is going strong 70 years from now when I'm dead, they say "Dday made absolutely no sense! Why in the heck would they count his post?!"
I wish a lot of my friends my age would read more books too. It disappoints me that the only thing they read are: texts, facebook comments, or internet blogs.

You don't need to wait that long, I have already been hinting at it for quite a while!

Sometime in the near future, I see myself stopping for the day.
Really what has changed???

If you cannot tell, I've already started slowing down. My electrolytes are running low, I need another Diet Dr. Pepper.
Salt and pepper!

Could you use the unless xxx then in an example? I'm curious as to how that'll work.
Wow - I keep code from years and years ago - 1988 - VAX-11 basic ran in VAX/VMS minicomputers.
UNLESS/THEN - which we used heavily back in the PDP-11 days - was DEPRECATED by Digital Equipment Copr (DEC) - so we had to run through all our code looking for UNLESS THEN's and changing them to
IF NOT cond THEN
I found one UNLESS/THEN commented out - and one switched to an IF NOT.
I also found an UNLESS as a modifier. You could put it after the "code to execute".
X = 1 UNLESS X > 100
X = 1 IF X < 1
X = X + 1 WHILE X < 100
X = X + 1 UNTIL X > 100
All valid "modifiers" back in the 80's on that machine.

Since then I've seen quite a few bands: AC/DC, Motley Crue(x2), Aerosmith(x6), Van Halen, just to name a few
Do you have a favourite???

That was cool! And I guess UNLESS is kinda quick and dirty way for conditional statements
It was needed because it all came from a place where IF / THEN was at first single line - wow that was hard to use
Then multi-line - but without END statements. A new line # cleared the IF/THEN when used in block mode. And you could also have ELSE - and again the NEW LINE # cleared the IF/THEN/ELSE.
So conditionals where not just quick and dirty - they were required because of how ugly the END of the IF-block was back in that syntax.
Imagine - we wrote whole financial AP/AR/GL and payroll systems with this stuff!

When I saw AC/DC, angus looked like he was going to break a hip up on stage, but he still played great.
Yeah, that was his style, hopping/skipping across the stage, hehe.

If/then staments where single lines? That's weird.
C++ programmers will dismiss you as a cretinous simpleton for your inability to keep track of pointers chained 6 levels deep and Java programmers will pillory you for buying into the evils of Microsoft. Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter
