5174 :: How does the pass statement differ from python?

  I tried the pass statement by chance in nim, it seems work as it should be but there is no documentation I can found. Does anybody give us a explanation on its usage?

  So I'm wondering why does the following code get compiled

  import htmlgen import jester

  router all:

  before:

  pass

  router home:

  get "/":

  resp h1("Hello world")

  router first:

  get "/first":

  resp h2("first")

  router second:

  get "/second":

  resp h2("second")

  proc main() =

  var jester = initJester() jester.register(all) jester.register(home) jester.register(first) jester.register(second) jester.serve()

  when isMainModule:

  main()

  Because it comes from jester: https://github.com/dom96/jester/blob/dc74a797ebca15e4f1b46a7f2e1f4e733b1c5ee2/jester.nim#L588

  @kaushalmodi Thanks a lot! I should've checked the source code.
