tenary operators c++ code example

Example 1: conditional operator in cpp

//(expression 1) ? expression 2 : expression 3
//If expression 1 evaluates to true, then expression 2 is evaluated.
   int x, y = 10;

   x = (y < 10) ? 30 : 40;
   cout << "value of x: " << x << endl; //prints 40

Example 2: ternary operator c++

//one ternary operator
statement ? if-true-do-this : if-false-do-this;
//if-statement version
if(statement){
  if-true-do-this;
}else{
  if-false-do-this;
}


//nested ternary operator
statement-1 ? if-true-do-this-1 : statement-2 ? if-true-do-this-2 : if-false-do-this-2;
//if-statement version
if(statement-1){
  if-true-do-this-1;
}else {
  if(statement-2){
    if-true-do-this-2;
  }else{
    if-false-do-this-2;
  }
}
