No parens needed if a space precedes the .
Heh! I would call that an inferior alternative to the parentheses
though; it's so unusual to put a space before the dot that I wouldn't
consider it something to do in normal code. Anyone coming through and
editing would see it as a mistake to be fixed.
I have only used int methods in interactive exploration, and have always
used space. I have never used (), but agree that they are better for
permanent code. The -7 is really nasty (unless one were to actually want
that).
