I use the ?: a lot!!!
I agree that an if/else is more readable, but in some situations the ?: is
better.
For example I use it to "normalize" method parameters:
void mmm(int i,String[] sss)
{
i = i < 0 ? 0 : i;
sss = sss == null ? new String[0] : sss;
...
}
The above is much more concise than:
void mmm(int i,String[] sss)
{
if( i < 0 )
i = 0;
if( sss == null )
sss = new String[0];
}
and I don't find it any less readable...
Sure enough in other cases an if/else is much better!!!
