I am not picturing why this is true, if you cannot use key words as parts of variables (alone separated by a space) and lines end with a newline or semicolon (some symbol)
The first restriction might make this a problem.
I am not saying it is a good idea, but it is not obvious to me.
Removing keywords from variables is a big sacrifice when they are often such common glue words, like `and`, `or`, `if`, etc. Say `and` is the keyword and you want a variable called foo_and_bar. To get such words back you would need to add something so that the parser knows if
foo and bar == true
means
foo && bar == true
or
foo_and_bar == true
?
You could fix it with ugliness like making the keyword `@and` or some such, or the variable `foo @and bar` but that's not an improvement.
Yes, it is, but it would also change the language, it is funny I forget c++ has “and” because && is so ubiquitous.
Likely you will get changes so “if” is ? Or something.
(Like we wee with ternary operator)
Like I said, I can’t picture the requirement, but am not sure it is a good idea.
