[C programming syle poll] conditionals

[chris at umcp-cs.UUCP]

K&R, p.41:

	... relational expressions like  i > j  and logical expressions
	connected by  &&  and  ||  are defined to have value 1 if true,
	and 0 if false.

So any compiler that generates -1 or 0 for "y == x" is just plain
wrong.

I won't argue about which style is "better"; that's a personal
decision, as far as I'm concerned.
