RE: worst RPG ever seen?

I've seen and had to maintain the If, else, do something, before.  In a
System/38 environment I believe.

I think two schools of thought were at play.  Maintain positive logic was
one reason.  Once upon a time it was used to speed the compile of the
program.

Hey... I do that... too lazy to clean up the code after I have find I don't
need it.

How about:

if x = y;
else;
 // do something
endif;

Bad thing is, I am sure I wrote it in my first years as a programmer. I
didn't know about NOT.
