VBScript: Multiple Statements on One Line

Many examples have I seen regarding how to break a long statement into multiple lines but only yesterday did I learn how to place two statements on the same line.


DIM strMyName : strMyName = "Chris"
DIM i : For i = 0 to 10
WScript.Echo i
Loop


This is, to me, very cool. If you’re using ‘Option Explicit’ (which you better be using), you can declare and assign a value to a variable, all on the same line… not too exciting, but it makes code much cleaner when used apropriatly.

   This is why VB .NET was so much more useful.

   Dim strMyName = “Chris”
   For i As Integer = 0 To 10

   End For

   More powerful, yes. More useful, arguably no. The VBScript engine is part of a Windows install these days. VB.Net compilers, on the other hand, are less prevalent.
