is not None problems

[shargon]

This source produce if (false) output

def Main(operation):

    if operation is not None:
        return True
    else:
        return False

As you can see, is impossible to return true in this opCode output

Could you check it @localhuman ?

if operation: could be the right python style to do it.
But you can do (and it should work):

>>> def Test(argument):
      if argument is not None:
              return True
      else:
              return False
 
>>> Test(1)
True
>>> Test(None)
False

in this case I think the appropriate would be

def Main(operation=None):
    if operation:
        return True
    else:
        return False

avm for this last example is well compiled:

This code originated from the NEX neo-ico-template:

https://github.com/neonexchange/neo-ico-template/blob/master/ico_template.py#L61

I would think these three should be functionally identical:

if operation:
if operation != None:
if operation is not None:

or am I missing something?

Test 1 👍

def Main(operation):
    if operation:
        return True
    else:
        return False

Test 2 👍

def Main(operation):
    if operation != None:
        return True
    else:
        return False

Test 3 👎

def Main(operation):
    if operation is not None:
        return True
    else:
        return False

With new version of compiler I will be interested in this!

I'll have to add a NoneTest to see and document exactly how it behaves.
