I don't want to use ternaries

For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
The whole idea of expressions is very nice, and I can't imagine using ternary expressions anywhere after learning Rust.
Also implicit returns ❤️
I never got to like implicit anything.
Not even returns. Ever.
Doing everything explicitly can get to be annoying, especially when it comes to what you had to do before without Vulkan's VK_EXT_shader_object.
It's clear that some stuff should be implicit - most types in programming languages, for example; needing to specify a struct type and then the struct itself can be annoying - and other stuff explicit, like low level operations.
Returns are something that usually fall into that "implicit" category. Why should I do
let a = function(); return a;
when I can just dofunction()
? It's shorter, simpler, and I don't waste keystrokes.You get used to it pretty quickly. After a while you wonder how you ever lives without it. Explicit returns feel like ending an
if
withendif
. The end of the conditional's scope is implied by the end of the block by}
or whatever.
