Xurion Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Hi all, I'm having a debate over some standards that my employer wants to put in place for PHP coding. He has said we should use: if((condition) and (condition)){ rather than: if((condition) && (condition)){ His reason for this is because we use && in JavaScript. I've not seen anyone using the 'and' in if statements in forever. Is it depreciated? or is using it totally ok? Are there any differences comparing 'and' to &&? Thanks in adv.

conker87 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 AND and && are exactly the same. && is better IMHO because it separates words (i.e. comparing variables.)

What does it matter that you use '&&' in JavaScript? Virtually all C-style code uses '&&' as logical AND. I fail to see any gain this proposed switch would give. Indeed, I think it would look awkaward, and perhaps even confusing.
