Hi I have little question about elvis operator
list.forEach {
nInt? >n? print("No number is available")
}
I want to pass print statement on left hand side
any suggestion or solution appreciated

[tateisu]

when(n){
	null-> println("n is null")
	else-> ...
}

or use

if(n==null) ... else ...

if you want write it in a line.

also kotlin 1.3 allows

when(val cursor=query(...)){
	null-> log.d("cursor is null")
	else-> cursor.use{ cursor-> ... }
}

thanks for your reply so it means we can only perform operation on left hand side in elvis operator
