You can write
b when a;
if you want (for Perl-heads).
You can also write
if a do b; done;
for a statement. Or ..
match b with
| case 1 of 2 => { b; }
| _ => {}
endmatch;
Hehe. I hate C's if because it needs brackets:
if a then
reads better to me than if(a) .. but then I learned
Pascal long before C.
