in thread true/false condition - what am I doing wrong?

The ternary operator is stackable. So for three choices, the following might be bearable:

use strict; use warnings; for my $type ( qw(add edit nada) ) { my $redo = $type eq 'add' ? 'wiki_add2' : $type eq 'edit' ? 'wiki_edit2' : 'error'; print "$type -> $redo\n"; } __END__ add -> wiki_add2 edit -> wiki_edit2 nada -> error

But as AM points out, the OP's task seems to call for a dispatch table.
