Message-ID: <bn42kf$ca3@cui1.lmms.lmco.com> (raw)

Reviewing some old code we are converting from Ada 83 to 95, I came across
this:

case <boolean expression> is
  when true =>
       <do something>

  when false =>
       <do something else>

end case;


Kind of made me chuckle a little.  The guy how wrote it is Canadian, so I
took to calling it the "Canadian If Statement" (not in a cruel way).
