  I have always disliked that "trick" because it breaks the logical way
to "read" the line. Nobody says "if zero is equal to this value". The
common expression is "if this value is equal to zero".

  I have seen some people go further and extend that "trick" to things
like:

    0 < money

  This always confuses me. Again, nobody says "if zero is smaller than
the amount of money". That sentence would be quite confusing. Naturally
everyone says "if the amount of money is larger than zero".
