Conditional Expressions 2

• In general, to obtain the value of the conditional expression

expr1 ? expr2 : expr3

• we first determine whether expr1 is true or false (0 is false, anything else is true). If expr1 is true, the value of the conditional expression is expr2; if expr1 is false, the value is expr3.

• Example

x = (i>j) ? j : i;

set x to the minimum of i and j.
