TalkPHP - View Single Post - Using ISSET()...How does this line of code work?

...so basically, leaving the tech terms out, it works like an if-else statement (not only works, but it is exactly that). The following statement:

PHP Code:


			
if($a == 1)
{
    $b++;
}
else
{
    $c++;
}

can be translated using the ternary operator into:

PHP Code:


			
$a == 1 ? $b++ : $c++;
