I don't believe this. If the parens were the problem, then why didn't
M-expressions gain popularity? Why didn't CGOL? Why didn't Dylan?
Why hasn't *any* alternative syntax helped? (Honu, anyone?)
And why aren't parens a problem in C:
if (unlikely(!access_ok(VERIFY_READ, iocbpp, (nr*sizeof(*iocbpp)))))
return -EFAULT;
or Java?
private static void defCategory(String name,
final int typeMask) {
map.put(name, new CharPropertyFactory() {
CharProperty make() { return new Category(typeMask);}});
}
