So I'm just curious if there is a short hand statement to this:
if(number < 0 ) bigInt.sign = 0; else bigInt.sign = 1; I see all these short hand statements for if a < b and such.
I'm not sure on how to do it properly and would like some input on this.
Thanks!
I actually just figured it out right before you guys had answered.
The shortest solution is bigInt.sign = (number < 0) ? 0 : 1

The ternary operator, also known as the conditional operator, is used as shorthand for an if...else statement. A ternary operator is written with the syntax of a question mark ( ? ) followed by a colon ( : ), as demonstrated below. In the above statement, the condition is written first, followed by a ? .
C has the following conditional statements: Use if to specify a block of code to be executed, if a specified condition is true. Use else to specify a block of code to be executed, if the same condition is false. Use else if to specify a new condition to test, if the first condition is false.
There can also be multiple conditions like in C if x occurs then execute p, else if condition y occurs execute q, else execute r. This condition of C else-if is one of the many ways of importing multiple conditions.
The conditional operator is a single programming statement and can only perform one operation. The if-else statement is a block statement, you can group multiple statements using a parenthesis. The conditional operator can return a value and so can be used for performing assignment operations.
The basic syntax for using ternary operator is like this:
(condition) ? (if_true) : (if_false) For you case it is like this:
number < 0 ? bigInt.sign = 0 : bigInt.sign = 1; If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
