Hi,

I need to ask: Where is the improvement? The compiler does not bother and for the human reader you do not do anything obvious and you decreased grepability.

The declaration of local variable _retval_ was removed also. So both, variable declaration and assignment removal are the improvements.

Regarding the greability, I think that depends on the context.

Thanks!

Yeah, but a variable called "retval" has an extremely clear function. Simplifying code is an improvement. Making it clearer is an improvement.
I am sorry but the proposed change is almost like removing blank lines to make it more compact

"retval" has a clear function and is unique.
