But I've come to find ternaries to often be less quick/easy to read than something like:

I am with BrowserUK here, and I am happy to see you are using the "I find" instead of the way to often used "it is better to" (here in the monastery), as many idioms that are easy to parse by person A causes headaches to person B.

Personally I would try to avoid statement modifiers to any cost. I hate them. They make me read code exactly opposite of what the author meant.

I have no trouble reading (nested) ternary operations. Maybe too used to those from doing C.

You also doing java? Where 42 == $n is quite often preferred over $n == 42 because of "string".equals ($n) implies NULL checks.


Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
