Conditional Operators in C Language

Conditional or ternary operators in C Language:

Conditional operators return one value if condition is true and returns another value is condition is false.

• This operator is also called as ternary operator.

Syntax     :        (Condition? true_value: false_value);

Example :        (A > 100  ?  0  :  1);

.

• In above example, if A is greater than 100, 0 is returned else 1 is returned. This is equal to if else conditional statements.

Example program for conditional/ternary operators in C language:

C

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

#include <stdio.h> int main() {         int x=1, y ;         y = ( x ==1 ? 2 : 0 ) ;         printf("x value is %d\n", x);         printf("y value is %d", y); }

Output:

x value is 1 y value is 2

S.no	Types of Operators	Description
1	Arithmetic_operators	These are used to perform mathematical calculations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modulus
2	Assignment operators	These are used to assign the values for the variables in C programs.
3	Relational operators	These operators are used to compare the value of two variables.
4	Logical operators	These operators are used to perform logical operations on the given two variables.
5	Bit wise operators	These operators are used to perform bit operations on given two variables.
6	Conditional(ternary) operators	Conditional operators return one value if condition is true and returns another value is condition is false.
7	Increment / decrement operators	These operators are used to either increase or decrease the value of the variable by one.
8	Special operators	&, *, sizeof( ) and ternary operators
