convert if else to ternary operator in javascript code example

Example 1: ternary function javascript

var variable;
if (condition)
  variable = "something";
else
  variable = "something else";

//is the same as:

var variable = condition ? "something" : "something else";

Example 2: javascript ternary operator

//ternary operator syntax and usage:
condition ? doThisIfTrue : doThisIfFalse

//Simple example:
let num1 = 1;
let num2 = 2;
num1 < num2 ? console.log("True") : console.log("False");
// => "True"

//Reverse it with greater than ( > ):
num1 > num2 ? console.log("True") : console.log("False");
// => "False"

Example 3: js ternary operator

var numOfBottles = 99;

while(numOfBottles > 0){
	
  	// ternary use, instead of using if / else 
    var bottles = numOfBottles < 2 ? "bottle" : "bottles";

    console.log(numOfBottles + " " + bottles + " of beer on the wall.");
    console.log(numOfBottles + " " + bottles + " of beer,");
    console.log("take one down, pass it around,");
    numOfBottles--;

    console.log(numOfBottles + " " + bottles + " of beer on the wall.");
}
