in thread Two simple code style advice questions

You also doing java?

Nope. I started trying out "42 == n" in C a long time ago to avoid accidentally writing "if( n = 42 )".

In this case, I wrote "42 == $n" as I find "42" to be the much more interesting part of the expression. I prefer to put shorter things and more interesting things first to speed parsing.
