Did you know about AS3 “down to” operator?

I am talking about –> operator. Did you know about it? It’s called “down to” operator. Here’s an example.

var a:uint = 20;
while ( a --> 0 ) trace(a);

Isn’t it cool?!

Got ya!? Actually it’s while (a– > 0) trace(a);
But so many people believe this. Got this one from here. Great read till like page 7.

for(var i = 0, j = 0; i < 10, j < 20; i++, j++){
trace(i,j)
}

didn't know you could do this, :)

Hi! I do not understand where does “down to” operator (–>)???
I you example you use “–” decrement operator and comparison with “>0″. This example should look like:

var a:uint = 20;
while ( a — ) trace(a); // or “while ( a– > 0 ) trace(a);

My previous comment was spoiled! It is probably some auto correction.
