Thanks.

I did think of a } as another safe case, but actually, I would not have 
done anything with this one because they are both on the same line.  But I 
was more thinking of i++, j++; which I saw somewhere.  This one is a bit 
more complicated. and would probably be better on separate lines.

Thanks for the feedback.
