Is Java O.K with single-line if statements?

Anonymous

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ yep

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Mego cool!

FlagAsSpam

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ It's okay with anything single line. ;)

Chris Jester-Young

That.

You can squash a whole Java program into a single line. Java is not line-oriented.

FlagAsSpam

19:06

Java is single line. xD

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

I mean, as in if(x) y;

FlagAsSpam

It just removes whitespace when it compiles.

Oh.

Chris Jester-Young

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Yes.

FlagAsSpam

Yeah. That too. :P

@FlagAsSpam It doesn't "remove" whitespace; the lexer still takes whitespace into account but it doesn't appear as a token.

Dennis

@FlagAsSpam Pulled. No worries.

FlagAsSpam

I thought it just straight up ignored it when it compiled. o-o (that's what I meant by removed)

Q: You are the Weakest Link, Goodbye

This king-of-the-hill challenge is based off of the game show, Weakest Link. For those unfamiliar with the show, the crux of this challenge deals with who you vote off: If the other players are smarter than you, then you have less of a chance of getting the pot. If the other players are dumb...
