A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

such as `if(isNull(someString)) { someString.length } else { someString.length }` , the first `someString.length` would give an error or something

not right now, you need to wait for contracts to make it into the language

why not use a regular `if(someString == null)`?

some languages support a falsey null, like `if(null)` and i was adding a simple function to help with that

but yeah you can just null check and its alright

could you point me to info on contracts in kotlin progress?

there is not much progress/public information about contracts yet, just <https://discuss.kotlinlang.org/t/status-of-kotlin-internal-contracts/6392>
