note gwadej <p>While I understand your point and would not dream of trying to convince you to change, I usually try to use <c>unless</c> in very specific contexts. If there is only one condition and it would normally be expressed as a negative, I find <c>unless {cond}</c> much cleaner than <c>if !{cond}</c>.</p> <p>I can understand the point about people not being able to DeMorganize in their heads. (I knew a really, really good programmer once who regularly had problems with <c>and</c> and <c>or</c>) But, I have found that sometimes <c>unless</c> is clearer (just like in English.)</p> <!-- Node text goes above.
