I know this subject has been beaten somewhat to death, but how about making
the if/then/else operator a method of the bool type, as in:
var = (x > 10).choose(ifyes, ifno)
Choose() would need to be a special function of course to avoid evaluating the
non-selected choice. I haven't seen this syntax proposed before, although I
have not waded through all the debate in comp.lang.python.
I would love to see some form of choice operator added, mainly because it
supports a functional style of programming -- I very much like to initialise
variables as they are introduced (and preferably not to assign to them later).
