	And how would a function "if" perform

	if(conditional):
would become
	True:
or
	False:

	What determines that branching is desired? The colon? (then what
does the colon on "def x():" perform?)

	Or take "while"...

	while condition: #implies a loop

	while(condition): #as a function implies a return value so again we
have

	True:
or
	False:

	Now, how does the language differentiate between a loop and an if?

	if(conditional):
		do something and continue with next statement

turns into
	True:
		do something and continue with next statement

while

	while(conditional):
		do something and go back to the test

turns into
	True:
		do something and go back to the test
