ternary operator or code example

Example 1: ternary operator

// (condition) ? (if true, do this) : (otherwise, do this)
const hasAccount = true
// let userDisplayMessage
// if (hasAccount) {
//   userDisplayMessage = 'Welcome Back'
// } else {
//   userDisplayMessage = 'Please Sign Up'
// }
const userDisplayMessage = hasAccount ? 'Welcome Back' : 'Please Sign Up'
console.log(userDisplayMessage)

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: ternary operator javascript

// ternary operators are frequently used as a shorter cleaner if statement
// condition ? exprIfTrue : exprIfFalse

let age = 15;
let canDrive = age >= 16 ? 'yes' : 'no';
// canDrive will be 'no'
// the condition will be age > 16 which is false so canDrive will equal exprIfFalse

// this ternary is the same as this if else statement
let age = 15;
let canDrive;
if (age >= 16) {
    canDrive = 'yes';
} else {
    canDrive = 'no';
}

// canDrive will be 'no' because 15 is less than 16

Example 4: ternary operator

isMember ? '$2.00' : '$10.00'
// isMember true =>  output: "$2.00"

// isMember false =>  output: "$10.00"

// isMember null =>  output: "$10.00"
