title: Reducing the number of brackets in Swift
body: <p>Does anyone know if there is a way to use some kind shorthand in swift? more specifically, leaving out the braces in things like IF statements... eg</p>
  
  <pre><code>if num == 0
    // Do something
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>instead of </p>
  
  <pre><code>if num == 0
  {
    // Do something
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Those braces become rather space consuming when you have a few nested IF's.</p>
  
  <p>PS. I do know I can do the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>if num == 0 {
    // Do something }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I'm still curious if that sort of thing is possible</p>
