Hi, how can I write the popular C/JAVA syntax in Python?
Java example:
return (a==b) ? 'Yes' : 'No'
My first idea is:
return ('No','Yes')[bool(a==b)]
Is there a more elegant/common python expression for this?
Yes, Python has ternary operator-like syntax:
return ('Yes' if a==b else 'No')
Note that this requires a recent version of Python.
Who let the dogs in? That's awful syntax.
