Conditional or ternary Operator

A conditional operator assigns a specified value to a variable based on some conditions, i.e it assigns a value to a variable if a condition is true , otherwise assigns an alternate value if condition is false.

Syntax

variable name = (condition) ? value1 : value2;

Practical Example

Let write a script to check how experience a web developer is, depending on their years of experience in the industry

Javascript code

 function checkExp() { var input, output; input = document.getElementById("expcheck").value; output = (input < 2) ? "You're a young developer" : "You're an experienced developer"; document.getElementById("output").innerHTML = output; } 

Below is the snippet in codepen
