Parameter

expression_1 Returned if condition_expression is true.

expression_2 Returned if condition_expression is false.

Example

bool hasFreeSweets = false;

string str = hasFreeSweets ? "Free sweets!" : "No free sweets.";

//output in console
Console.WriteLine(str);

Equivalent if...else Statement

// initialize - set true or false here to view different result
bool hasFreeSweet = false;

string str;

if(hasFreeSweet){
    str = "Free sweet!";
} else {
    str = "No free sweet.";
}

//output in console
