As long as you're just writing for yourself, do whatever you like; if you ever join some open-source projects, though, you may have to adjust to majority's coding style. Personally I find parentheseless code just as easy to read as parenthesized one (even easier, in some cases, when you'd have to nest parens three-deep...) and much easier to write. -- Matma Rex
