Conditional operators in C

CONDITIONAL OR TERNARY OPERATORS IN C:

• Conditional operators return one value if the condition is true and returns another value is the condition is false.
• This operator is also called a ternary operator.

Syntax     :        (Condition? true_value: false_value);

Example :         (A > 100  ?  0  :  1);

• In above example, if A is greater than 100, 0 is returned else 1 is returned. This is equal to if else conditional statements.

EXAMPLE PROGRAM FOR CONDITIONAL/TERNARY OPERATORS IN C:

C

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

#include <stdio.h>   int main() {    int x=1, y ;    y = ( x ==1 ? 2 : 0 ) ;    printf("x value is %d\n", x);    printf("y value is %d", y); }

OUTPUT:

x value is y value is 2
