Re: [std-proposals] if !(condition)

Firstly, I believe that this particular case in if statements is the most common, so it’s my main focus; secondly, the ‘if not’ construct already exists and is widely used elsewhere, making it more readily acceptable. Therefore, the proposal will focus exclusively on if statements rather than loop statements.

I would expect a comment about "while" and "do while" (and possibly "for").



Would you propose adding ! there, too, oppose it, leave it neutrally open, invite anybody to write a paper or want to see, how if !() works out? Or is it not possible there?

I've wrote a proposal that suggests allowing the omission of the outermost parentheses to simplify the conditions in if statements:

Please share your comments.
