Compact consequent after si/dum heads via ergo, with ∴ reserved for closure bodies.

# =============================================================================
# ergo — Compact consequent after si/dum heads via ergo, with ∴ reserved for closure bodies.
# =============================================================================
#
# What this teaches:
#   • Compact consequents — `ergo` follows `si`, `sin`, `secus`, or `dum` heads with a single consequent statement.
#   • Guard-return pattern — `si <cond> ergo redde <value>` is a concise guard clause.
#
# Common mistakes:
#   • Using -> instead of → for function return types — Faber uses the Unicode arrow.
#
# See also: si, redde, clausura, ergo
# =============================================================================

# operatores/control — ergo therefore consequent
#
# GRAMMAR:
#   consequentStmt :← ('si' | 'sin' | 'secus' | 'dum') expr 'ergo' stmt

# EXPECTED OUTPUT:

# =============================================================================
# ergo — Introduces a compact statement consequent.
# =============================================================================
#
# What this teaches:
#   • Guard clauses — `si <cond> ergo redde <expr>` provides a compact
#     one-liner for early returns
#   • `sin` and `secus` also accept `ergo` for chained guard expressions
#   • Demonstrates guard-return patterns, optional returns, and linear search
#
# Common mistakes:
#   • TODO: using `ergo` with a block instead of a single statement
#
# See also: si, dum, clausura, redde, tacet

Introduces a compact statement consequent.

# =============================================================================
# ergo — Introduces a compact statement consequent.
# =============================================================================
#
# What this teaches:
#   • Inline conditionals — `ergo` replaces a single-statement block body on
#     `si` and `secus` branches
#   • `si <cond> ergo <stmt> secus ergo <stmt>` forms a two-way one-liner
#     without braces
#
# Common mistakes:
#   • TODO: chaining multiple statements after `ergo` (it accepts only one
#     statement)
#
# See also: si, dum, clausura, redde, tacet
# =============================================================================

# One-liner conditionals with ergo
#
# si <condition> ergo <statement>                              -- single consequent
# si <condition> ergo <statement> secus ergo <statement>     -- if-else one-liner
#
# GRAMMAR:
#   ifStmt :← 'si' expr 'ergo' stmt ('secus' 'ergo' stmt)?
#
# EXPECTED OUTPUT:
#   Validation and grading lines for sample x, aetas, and puncta values.
