C Ternary Operators


There is also a short-hand if else, which is known as the ternary operator because it consists of three operands. It can be used to replace multiple lines of code with a single line. It is often used to replace simple if else statements.

Syntax

variable = (condition) ? expressionTrue : expressionFalse;

Example

#include 

int main() {
  int time = 20;
  if (time < 18) {
    printf("Good day.");
  } else {
    printf("Good evening.");
  }
  return 0;
}
