Well, I for one disagree ;-) I always return early for trivial cases, getting them out of the way, making it obvious that the meat or rest of a method works only for given validated inputs (pre-conditions of sort). It also avoids having to scroll down to figure out what happens next, like the value is returned as-is in this case. Of course it depends on length of the method and over factors, but having a single return is not a criteria I rate highly when judging how a method should be implemented. It's all very much in the eye of the beholder. --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
