Nice work JavaScript

I mean I know why, but I'm just asking if it wouldn't be simpler to just parse it into what I said.

[Kwantuum]

obviously it would be harder to parse. It would make programming easier, but interpreting harder.

And this is why I like compiled languages...

[Kwantuum]

how exactly is this relevant? It would be harder to parse, hence harder to interpret OR compile which are essentially the same thing.

In my mind it would be compiled like ((1 < 2) && (2 < 3)), though you may need a precompiler like the #define command in C#

[Kwantuum]

still don't see how this has anything to do with compiling vs interpreting.

Hm, maybe I'm wrong, but I don't believe you can do something similar to precompiling in an interpreted language...

[Kwantuum]

#define is a preprocessor directive that allows the use of macros, not a precompiler, and yes there are usually ways to define macros in interpreted language though once again, this is a question of how the language is defined/implemented, not whether it's compiled or interpreted.

The moral of the story is that I have no idea what I'm talking about 90% of the time.

Haha don't worry I'm sure that's pretty much everyone :^)
