No no no. Code like that doesn't deserve death, just community
service. I've seen much MUCH worse... where multiple conditional
expressions get combined arithmetically, and then the result used
somewhere... I also may have been guilty of same, myself, though I'm
going to plead the internet's equivalent of the Fifth Amendment to the
US Constitution and not incriminate myself by showing the code...
