    If a "developer" can't understand the ?? null coalesce operator after it's explained, they shouldn't be allowed near production code. Commented Mar 16, 2011 at 20:47

    I suggest we change the operator from ?? to IfNullThen. ? can be IfSoChoose, : is ElseChoose. + is Add. - is Subtract, unless it's unary, then it's Negative. -- is split between DecrementBeforeUsing, and DecrementAfterUsing. In C++ you can do this with macros. Commented Nov 9, 2011 at 15:07
