I hate it when someone documents 'test whether this and that holds'. Or is there some convention that a test returns true if something holds and false otherwise? Suppose you have: "nonzero(x) tests whether x is zero or not" What does nonzero return? You have at least 5 possible return values. True False 0 1 x Would everyone interpret in the same way as the documenter actually wanted it to be interpreted?
