I want to understand the reasons behind this piece of design:
Inside when expression brackets {} has a special meaning: when(a) { 0 -> {"ok"} } means return "ok".
This is inconsistent with the rest of the syntax when(a) { 1 -> "no" } , because by logic that would mean return {"ok"}, which is a lambda
The same result can be achieved with a standard helper method when(a) { 1 -> run{"ok"} }
Q: what justifies the irregularity in the syntax
i think it goes mostly to the team, so: @yole , @udalov , @orangy
