y := case Other of
bla : 'hello';
foo : 'bye';
baz : 'adius';
end;
What do you gain with this?
Doesn't look much different to
case Other of
bla : y := 'hello';
foo : y := 'bye';
baz : y := 'adius';
end;
Shorter write imho.
Is that realy a reason for adding yet another extension to Pascal?
This is C thinking. I don't care about a word more or less to write
if only the *reading* of source code is easy (and the logic of the
language is clear). But each variant in writing makes it harder to
understand a source code (especially for newbies to whom the
learning curve gets steeper and steeper with each of such 'extensions').
