I posted something about this subject a while ago and got no response. I'm a big fan of one line code instead of if statements, just like you. Not only it looks nicer, it's a very strong intellectual exercise. However, my doubt is: Which one is really better? One line code obviously takes less RAM space, but which is faster? Is there any other aspect to be considered?
(Our code contains only two if statements, one of them being on the 'DO NOT CHANGE' part of the code. Looks great, works great, and I'm willing to post/e-mail the code to anyone interested.
