Better Example: (thanks Mr. Burns)
'Yes' if fruit == 'Apple' else 'No'
Now with assignment and contrast with if syntax
fruit = 'Apple'
isApple = True if fruit == 'Apple' else False
vs
fruit = 'Apple'
isApple = False
if fruit == 'Apple' : isApple = Trueif condition in print statement python
print (a if b else 0)python inline if
Python does not have a trailing if statement.
There are two kinds of if in Python:
1. if statement:
if condition: statement
if condition:
block
2. if expression (introduced in Python 2.5)
expression_if_true if condition else expression_if_false
And note, that both print a and b = a are statements. Only the a part is an expression. So if you write
print a if b else 0
it means
print (a if b else 0)
and similarly when you write
x = a if b else 0
it means
x = (a if b else 0)
Now what would it print/assign if there was no else clause? The print/assignment is still there.
And note, that if you don't want it to be there, you can always write the regular if statement on a single line, though it's less readable and there is really no reason to avoid the two-line variant.Copyright © 2021 Codeinu
