Non void procedures with no return statement

[A. Venkateswaran]

If a non-void procedure does not contain a return statement, what should the compiler do? Is it alright to throw an exception? I see that the SL spec says "If a procedure ends by falling off the end, the return value is unspecified" - does that mean we should always simply return zeros (or some garbage value) regardless of the return type?

Thanks in advance,

You don't need to do anything special...just leave $1 with whatever value
it already has. In general, it's up to the SL-Programmer to ensure that
they return a value when necessary.
