Conditional operators

A ternary operator pair " ? : " is available in C to construct conditional expression of the form

exp1?exp2:exp3

where exp1, exp2, and exp3 are expressions.

exp1 is evaluated first, if it is true, then exp2 is evaluated and becomes the value of the expression.
if exp1 is true, false exp3 is evaluated and becomes the value of the expression.

Code: 1

#include <stdio.h>
main() 
{
int a=10,b=15,x;

x=(a>b)?  a : b;
	
printf("%d\n", x );
}

Code: 2

#include <stdio.h>
main() 
{
int a=10,b=15,x;


if (a>b)
	x=a;
else 
	x=b;	
	
printf("%d\n", x );
}

Output:

15
