Dear Squeakers:

Here's a newbie question for you. :) You're writing a LISP interpreter in smalltalk (just 
to show someone how easy it is :) ). You're coding the evaluation of an if-then-else 
expression, which in LISP looks like this:

(if test do-if-true do-if-false)

You can either do:

(exprTest value: anEnvironment)
	ifTrue: [^ exprDoIfTrue value: anEnvironment]
	ifFalse: [^ exprDoIfFalse value: anEnvironment].

or 

^ (((exprTest value: anEnvironment) 
		ifTrue: [exprDoIfTrue] 
		ifFalse: [exprDoIfFalse])
	value: anEnvironment).

The first is more readable, the second is more concise, generates less code and 
shares the value: message passing to the doIfTrue, doIfFalse clauses.

Question 1: What is considered more smalltalk-like? (my guess is the first)
Question 2: Is the second form used at all? (my guess: ???)

Thanks,

Mayer
