---------------------------------
    Fix Version/s: Not Applicable
       Resolution: Not A Problem

Mathias explained its expected behaviour of the R-like language in SystemML to 
exhibit this behavior.

> Improve the consistency of predicates in "If-then-else" expressions

> The predicate or conditional-expression in the evaluation of the 
> +If-expression+ allows literal numeral values to be part of the predicate. In 
> the parser, if it sees a literal value of *1* then it would be _true_ 
> otherwise it is _false_; however it is entirely plausible to extend that 
> definition to cover all values *> 0* to be _true_ otherwise values *< 0* will 
> be interpreted as _false_.
> E.g. this should print *No!* but instead it prints "Yes!"
> bq. scala> val s = dml(""" if(-42) print("Yes!") else print("No!") """)
> bq. scala> ml.execute(s)
> bq. Yes!
> bq. SystemML Statistics:
> bq. Total execution time:             0.012 sec.
> bq. Number of executed Spark inst:    0.
