The feature implemented in the language. What’s not to like?

Oops, that should be just:
public func unless(expression: Bool, block: () -> ()) {
if !expression {
block()
}
}

Or, use something like this:
public func unless(expression: @autoclosure () -> Bool, block: () -> ()) {
if !expression {
block()
}
}
unless(..expression..) {
...code...
}

If at all possible I think it’s best to avoid adding keywords to the
language. Instead of ‘unless', you could do:
public func not(bool: Bool) -> Bool { return !bool }
if not(condition) { print("condition was false") }
Not terrible ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m not sure about the single line aspect of this proposal, but I am a big
proponent of “unless” and “until” as complements to “if” and “while”. They
greatly improve readability over "if !(expression)” and “while
!(expression)” IMHO.

For your specific example, I'd 100% use the guard statement. It achieves
the same result.
-1 from me.

handle both False and True cases.
[swift-evolution] ternary operator ?: suggestion
Also, in most cases I feel that guard would be a better choice.

I propose adding the unless and if statements from ruby.
Return false if james = nil
This returns false if the variable James is nil
. This line does it unless james is nil:
Return false unless james = nil
This has been really handy when working in ruby, reduces lines and
pyramids of doom
