I'd say this is a textbook example of sufficiently "substantial." Thanks, Ilija! This looks a lot better. My one question is why you're not including the implicit "match (true)" in this version, when the secondary vote on the previous RFC was 80% in favor of it. (And I still think the argument is stronger if you include a comparison to ternary assignment, but that doesn't affect implementation.) --Larry Garfield -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
