Shorter Conditional Statements

When writing a conditional you write it like this:
if name = "apple" or name = "banana" or name = "carrot" then
could we shorten this by doing:
if name = "apple" or "banana" or "carrot" then

Nice find, looks like there is also a isLike method; perhaps the NFS should be to document these and make them available for common use.

Hi James, thanks for that. Never seen this before. Will try to keep it in mind going forward as long as it performs OK. Cheers, Sam

Hi Sam, have you seen the isOneOf function? It doesn't seem to be in the jade documentation however.

vars
name : String;
begin
name := "apple";
write name.isOneOf("apple", "banana", "carrot");
