::: There is no reason to take it personally. It wasn't meant as a criticism, it is just another version in a different style, albeit a fair number of (style) differences. <u>Everybody's</u> code can be improved (as least, the style can be changed). In this case, I elided a few superfluous statements, which, in my opinion, didn't add anything to the REXX program or make it easier to understand/peruse. I didn't appreciate your style of capitalization, misaligned DO-END statements (and the intervening/encapsulating REXX statements), split IF-THEN clauses, and much more. But, that's only my opinion and preferences, I merely added a version that I found easier to read and understand (and I hoped others will appreciate this version), and I also removed superfluous DO-END blocks and such. Note that this re-written REXX version was added in the ''talk'' section, not on the ''page'' section so as to not clutter up the main page. I found that that particular REXX version was so difficult to follow and understand (the IF logic) with all the multiple misaligned DO-END and compound IF THEN-ELSE statements. The version (above) that I re-wrote speaks to style and understandability. There are many styles to write REXX in, and this is just one of them. Nobody's style is everybody's cup of tea. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 08:22, 19 May 2017 (UTC) |
