Re: Inverted logic

Have you considered a testCondition()? Hmm

A: for(...){
  next A if not my_truthiness( $_ );
  print $a;
}
[download]

A: for(...){
  unless( my_truthiness( $_ ) ){
    next A;
  }
  print $a;
}
[download]

A: for(...){
  my_truthiness( $_ ) or  next A;
  print $a;
}
[download]

A: for(...){
  next A unless my_truthiness( $_ );
  print $a;
}

The code I posted contained (a simplified version of) my test condition. What good would removing the inner loop do, when it was the inner loop that was the both the heart of the question and the source of the misrefactoring? With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.	[reply]
