I don’t see how the latter has any advantage over your earlier suggestion [more
or less]:
if (!foo)
foo = @“Something”;
Admittedly, it takes two lines instead of one. OTOH, as I said in another
recent thread, it seems to me that for a *reader* of the code, the latter form
is far more accessible than code with the “?…:” operator, which tends to force
the reader to figure out if the code is correct or not. I note that in this
thread, like the other one, most of the discussion has basically been about
figuring out what’s actually correct. Is there *any* confusion over the “if”
version?
