Sure. Nothing stopping you writing readable well commented perl. Just avoid some of the more terse statements. It can be a challenge though.
Shrug. If you don't like Perl, don't use it.
But I want to mock it good-naturedly, too.

A lots of things stop you from writing readable Perl code.
You have to forget half of the syntax first. Set perlcritic to max. Force whitespaces.
Download ton of packages for every little thing and hope they are cool with each other.
And still deal with edge cases that make you pluck your eyes out.

FVO readable for future me, it's not so bad. I don't have to worry about other people so much.

Because of all the garbage
One example that's giving you problems? Maybe even on a daily basis if you use it for work? What's garbage about it?

It doesn't make sense. I understand it, but it doesn't make sense.
I agree. If anything it should check if there is a nuumber and 0 is clearly a number.

In JS 0 is the same as False
They are not the same, but 0 can be implicitly converted to false.
What do you get if you do: 0 === false
-
At least you guys have ternary syntax cries in kotlin.
It's really special to not have ternary, but have Elvis.

Explosion?

print("odd" if num % 2 else "even")That's the native python version, for those curious
Oh wow, I think I hate that... Condition between the results? Yuck.
-
In JS at least, there's a concept of truthiness and falsiness.
0,undefined,null, and a few other non-boolean values are treated asfalseif used in conditionals and logical operations, while every other value is treated astrue. I'm pretty sure python has something similar.It does. Empty collections, 0, None

I think the idea is it reads more naturally, so you can read it like this
return A if statement is true else return BIs it really more natural for a non-programmer than "if statement is true than a else b"? I can't evaluate because of decades of C, so for me the python logic is still bizarre.

Maybe?
For C at least it doesn't have the actual words, so you need to know what the specific symbols are
var = condition ? a : b. In that expression we don't know what a or b are in regards to the condition.Python literally is
a if condition else b, so it reads out what is being done. -

in Scala, everything is an expression, including “if”, maybe kotlin is the same?
