C# Single line if with void return

Question

I'm looking to use a single line if statement with the ? operator to call return on a void method.

This is the full form statement:

if (failPaths.Count == paths.Count) {
    return;
}

I'm aware that I could do something like if (failPaths.Count == paths.Count) return; but I was just interested in seeing how it would be done with the ? operator.

Answer 1

This can't be done using conditional operator mentioned by you as ? operator.

In fact, conditional operator just evaluates condition and return either first or secod from two expressions - so it can be considered as expression itself.

But in your example if statement is used not for expression evaluation, but for control flow.
