- fuzztester 3y agoBut they kept the ENDs?
- timbit42 3y agoThe BEGINs were replace by THEN (for IFs) and DO (for WHILEs and FORs). They still need something to denote the ENDs. Instead of saying "THEN BEGIN" or "DO BEGIN", you can drop the BEGIN and just assume it's there.
- fuzztester 3y agoOkay, a bit like Ruby, THEN. IF I had to BEGIN a comment, I would say that FOR a WHILE I thought it was the END. # ;)
