</span>How is it different behaviour from C then? The only practical application<br>
that I see is in from C conversions (like ++ and --), so that you don't have<br>
to rethink complex expressions that some @($*@$ thought up.<br>
<br>
Of course one can find an use for any syntactic sugar, but then we should<br>
give up making a pascal, and simply declare FPC as the superset of all<br>
languages.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I mean only IIF definition/behavior like in VB.

</span>I don't see the point. And if a funky character is needed then use another<br>
one, don't add a third overload to &. (statement to intrinsic instead of<br>
