Any language supports this type of syntax?

{
int localVLVYMN = thatVeryLongVariableYourMateNamed;
}

As a single block, so that your temp-int is limited in scope. Also spitting on the hungarian notation - I would not tough that code with a polearm :thumbsup:

For extra C#7 goodness:

{
ref int localVLVYMN = ref thatVeryLongVariableYourMateNamed;
...
}

Now any changes to your alias will be reflected in the original. :) An added benefit for large structs: you avoid making a copy of the value. Ref return values and ref locals (C# Guide) | Microsoft Docs[^]

More ways to obfuscate my code :-D

You remember the syntax? :)

In Python you can use range(). So, for [0,1,2] you would do either;

if nThatVeryLongVariableYourMateNamed not in [0,1,2]:

or

if nThatVeryLongVariableYourMateNamed not in range(3):

or

if nThatVeryLongVariableYourMateNamed not in range(0,3):

or

if nThatVeryLongVariableYourMateNamed not in range(0,3,1):

Copy paste from SOverflow

static class Extensions
{

public static bool In(this T item, params T\[\] items)
{
    if (items == null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException("items");

    return items.Contains(item);
}

}

class Program
{

static void Main()
{


    int myValue = 1;

    if (myValue.In(1, 2, 3))
        // Do Somthing...

    string ds = "Bob";

    if (ds.In("andy", "joel", "matt")) 
    // Do Someting...
}
