Question

Read the if program segment given below:

if(a>b)
z = 25;
else
z = 35;

Which one of the following is the correct conversion of the if program segment to ternary?

Options

• z = a > b ? 35 : 25;

• z = a > b ? 25 : 35;

• z = a > b : 35 ? 25;

• z = a > b : 25 ? 35;

Answer 1

z = a > b ? 25 : 35;

Explanation:

The ternary operator works in this format: condition ? expression_if_true : expression_if_false;

• Condition: a > b
• True value: In your code, if the condition is true, z becomes 25.
• False value: If the condition is false (else), z becomes 35.

Putting it together: z = a > b ? 25 : 35;
