Blocks and Expressions

FScript is expression-oriented. Blocks are not just statement containers; they evaluate to values.

Simple example

result = {
  a = 1
  b = 2
  a + b
}

result becomes 3 because the final expression in the block is a + b.

Function bodies work the same way

double = (value: Number): Number => {
  next = value * 2
  next
}

There is no return keyword in Draft 0.1.

Why this style is useful

• small helpers stay compact
• intermediate values can still be named
• control flow like if, match, and try/catch fits naturally because they also produce values

Comparison to JavaScript

JavaScript mixes expressions and statements heavily. FScript keeps more forms expression-oriented so composition stays uniform.
