How do I use the ternary operator ( ? : ) in PHP as a shorthand for “if / else”?

The syntax is as follows −

$anyVariableName=yourCondition ? if condition becomes true then this will be executed: if condition becomes false then this gets executed;

Example

The PHP code is as follows

 Live Demo

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <?php    $value=100;    $result=$value >=100 ? "Greater Than or Equal to 100":"Less Than 100";    echo $result; ?> </body> </html>

Output

This will produce the following output

Greater Than or Equal to 100
