Topic - Operators in Python: Ternary Operator & their use with suitable example

Tanmoy G.

Question: What is a ternary operator in Python? Explain with example.

Answer: A ternary operator in Python is a shorthand way to perform a simple conditional operation, allowing you to return one of two values based on a condition. It's often used to replace a simple if-else statement with a more concise expression.

Syntax:    value_if_true if condition else value_if_false

Explanation

  • condition: The expression that is evaluated to either True or False.
  • value_if_true: The value that is returned if the condition is True.
  • value_if_false: The value that is returned if the condition is False.

Python Example: 

age = 20
status = "Adult" if age >= 18 else "Minor"
print(status)

#Output: Adult

In the above example:

  • The condition age >= 18 is evaluated.
  • If the condition is True, status is set to "Adult".
  • If the condition is False, status is set to "Minor".

Use Cases: The ternary operator is typically used for:

  • Conditionally assigning values to variables.
  • Simplifying simple if-else statements into one-liners.
  • Making code more concise when the conditional logic is straightforward.

When to Use: The ternary operator is best suited for simple conditions. For more complex logic, a full if-else statement is usually more readable.
