Typical newbie fail... Hate it every time I see it. Bloats the code and is absolutely useless.

heikomat6877yEarly-exit ftw. Just immediately return as soon as possible (for example in fail situations), so the only case remaining is the intended one, thus barely any else-block is needed.

I see this kind of mistake as a clear lack of proof reading your code. It's like an essay. First working version is a draft. Then you have to go back and look for improvements. So many people skip this step.
