if else in a single line python code example

Example 1: python single line if

new_value = value_when_true if condition else value_when_false

Example 2: if else python in single line

value_when_true if condition else value_when_false
Better Example: (thanks Mr. Burns)

'Yes' if fruit == 'Apple' else 'No'

Now with assignment and contrast with if syntax

fruit = 'Apple'
isApple = True if fruit == 'Apple' else False
vs

fruit = 'Apple'
isApple = False
if fruit == 'Apple' : isApple = True

Example 3: python oneline if
