    For optimal performance, you should rewrite it in Rust:

    inline_python::python! {
        print(js2py.eval_js("(number) => number % 2 ? 'odd' : 'even'")(number))
    };

        Please. That's C's ternary operator. JS is just a pile of garbage cosplaying as a programming language

        Why do you say it's a pile of garbage?

          The ternary syntax is really my only real gripe with python design -- putting the conditional BETWEEN the true and false values feels so very messy to me.

            It's kinda natural to me having used Perl a lot.

                Lisps makes more sense to me though

                (if condition a b)

                VS

                a if condition else b

                      Make sure the browser is made using Rust and run on a VM running on Linux, compiled to WASM.

                        Just send pseudo code to AI and compile straight to binary.

                          Wait until you learn that postfix conditionals are syntactic sugar and the compiler* turns that line into the equivalent of $debug and print(debug message), putting the conditional in first place, a lot like the ternary operator.

                          * Perl compiles to bytecode before running.

                          The ternary operator itself isn't implemented in terms of and (and or) but it could be.

                            Luckily I don't need to read or write bytecode and all that matters to me is the syntax

                              Clearly the garbage collector is too effective

                                  At least you guys have ternary syntax cries in kotlin.

                                          It certainly has its issues. I find that the things people have trouble with are the things I tend to like about it. Of course, reading it later is a problem sometimes. 🙂

                                          Write only language!

                                          I still reach for it sometimes.
