Ternary Conditional Operator In TypeScript

Introduction

 
The ternary conditional operator(?) is not a statement but it creates conditional logic. It is used to assign a certain value to a variable based on a condition.
 
It will return the value on the left of the colon ( : ) if the expression is true, and return the value on the right of the colon if the expression is false.
 
TypeScript ternary operators take three operands.
 
Syntax
 
condition ? result1 : result2;
 
The following example shows how to use a ternary condition operator in TypeScript.
 
Step 1
 
Open Visual Studio 2012 and click "File" -> "New" -> "Project...". A window is opened. In this window, click HTML Application for TypeScript under Visual C#.
 
Provide the name of your application as "Ternary_Operator" and then click "Ok".
 
Step 2
 
After this session the project has been created; a new window is opened on the right side. This window is called the Solution Explorer. The Solution Explorer contains the ts file, js file, and CSS files.
