RE: [PHP] Assignment operator proposal

There seems to be a parse error in your code. The words "Python" and "enthusiast" can not exist together in the same substr. This will result in the "LMAO error" you've been receiving. :) -Kevin -----Original Message----- From: Bogdan Stancescu [mailto:mgv@fx.ro] Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 3:36 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Assignment operator proposal Hi all! I'd like to hear from a single one of you who isn't tired of code similar to <? if (!$whatever) { $whatever=something; } ?> or else <? if ($whatever) { $somethingelse=$whatever; } ?> How about a new asignment operator which would shut up all those Python enthusiasts - let's say the new operator would be caret - and we could replace the first example with <? $whatever^=something; ?> and the second example with <? $somethingelse=^$whatever; ?> What's more, we could also have <? $yetanother^=^$anything; ?> which would assign $anything to $yetanother if and only if both are note null.
