I'm using Ruby nowadays in favour of PHP like I switched from Java to
Python before. So considering these two "default" languages I can say
that I sorely miss Ruby's blocks in Python and conversely that I miss
white-space indentation in Ruby. Consider the following code
class Myclass
def initialize(arg)
if arg.significant
arg.each do | par |
#do something
end
end
end
end
All the "end"s are rather superflous and its a bore to fix them and
their indentation while refactoring. So my question is: couldn't the
"end" statement be made optional through some global switch or signal to
the parser?
Note that I wrote "optional" because using Python in HTML is a pain any
conversion of text often screws up Python code (because white-space gets
lost) In those cases using "end" is preferred,
