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 5: ternary operator shorthand javascript

let startingNum = startingNum ? otherNum : 1
// can be expressed as
let startingNum = otherNum || 1

// Another scenario not covered here is if you want the value 
// to return false when not matched. 
//The JavaScript shorthandfor this is:
let startingNum = startingNum ? otherNum : 0
// But it can be expressed as
let startingNum = startingNum && otherNum

Example 6: how to use ternary operator in javascript

function example(…) {
    return condition1 ? value1
         : condition2 ? value2
         : condition3 ? value3
         : value4;
}

// Equivalent to:

function example(…) {
    if (condition1) { return value1; }
    else if (condition2) { return value2; }
    else if (condition3) { return value3; }
    else { return value4; }
}
