<p>Ah, well then. I must've misunderstood the intention behind your post. My bad.</p>
<blockquote>
<c>do('many', 'things', 'now') if ( $ready and $set and $prepared );</c>
</blockquote>
<p>could be made even more English-like (Englishy? Englishesque?) <sub>if we ignore for a moment that <c>do</c> is a built-in function ;)</sub></p>
<c>
do 'many', 'things', 'now' if $ready and $set and $prepared;
</c>
<p>And even you prefer the if-this-then-than notation over the that-if-this syntax, there are neat ways:</p>
<c>
$ready and $set and $prepared and do 'many', 'things', 'now';
$ready and $set and $prepared? do 'many', 'things', 'now' :() ;
</c>
<p>What's funny about that last one is that it's... well... rather Englishy indeed:</p>
<p>(Are you) ready and set and prepared? Do many things now <shocked emoticon>;</p>
<p>Coincidentally (or maybe not, as it's neatly linked to on [muba|my homenode]), I've [id://862038|asked about the various ways to write conditionals] before.
