I am for ternary operators whats the point of..

PHP Code:


			
if($bUserLoggedIn)
{
     $szUserName = 'Enfernikus';
}
else
{
    $szUserName = 'Argus';
}

When one could just do this...

PHP Code:


			

$szUserName = ($bUserLoggedIn) ? 'Enfernikus' : 'Argus';

Given this is a very simple example and we've not even gone into nested ternary operators.
