I am wondering how to write best a simple if comparison expression else expression end in one line. julia> if 7+2<10 3 else 0 end 3 works as desired. If the comparison is true, give a value 3 else give a value 0. But if the value resulting from condition true should be negative = …

Best way for comparisons in one line to avoid undesired effects of operator precedence

Two ways:

julia> if 7+2<10; -3 else 0 end
-3

julia> 7+2<10 ? -3 : 0
-3
