[REBOL] Evaluating if's
From: chalz:earthlink at: 1-Jul-2002 23:51
Here's a little question. Perhaps I've been spoiled in other languages, but
this is starting to frustrate me. I have something like:
if THIS and THAT []
Thing is, if THIS is false, it continues to evaluate THAT anyways. What's the
point? The result is obviously false anyways. I'm working on a case like this
(perhaps someone can provide a more elegant solution):
if (2 = length? p: parse filename ".") AND (not none? find pick p 2 "htm")
[ ...
Obviously, if the first condition is false, I want it to quit without
evaluating the second condition. Help? Any way I can continue doing this in
the same line, and without worrying about throwing and catching errors? Or am
I more or less doomed to yet another nested if? Thanks folks.
