|TRUE|, the result is the value of the expression between the '?' and ':',

*** 899,904 ****
--- 926,948 ----
You should always put a space before the ':', otherwise it can be mistaken for
use in a variable such as "a:1".
+ Falsy operator ~
+
+ This is also known as the "null coalescing operator", but that's too
+ complicated, thus we just call it the falsy operator.
+
+ The expression before the '??' is evaluated. If it evaluates to
+ |truthy|, this is used as the result. Otherwise the expression after the '??'
+ is evaluated and used as the result. This is most useful to have a default
+ value for an expression that may result in zero or empty: >
+ echo theList ?? 'list is empty'
+ echo GetName() ?? 'unknown'
+
+ These are similar, but not equal: >
+ expr2 ?? expr1
+ expr2 ? expr2 : expr1
+ In the second line "expr2" is evaluated twice.
