Hi I was just reading the following blog post http://www.elctech.com/blog/clarity-over-cleverness-but-what-is-clever, and like the author, it is the first time I have seen code as he describes. From the comments it would seem that some think it is an idiom to be used, and perhaps others do not. Just curious as to how common this use it? I do tend to side with view that it is not clear at first glance. Thanks Richard
