idk
it would seem kinda cool

it's built into javascript and probably wouldn't be very hard to implement (
some_boolean?"the boolean is true":"the boolean is false"
)

maybe it could be like this
(if <some condition::operators> then [value 1] otherwise [value 2]::operators)
ik it would be confusing to new scratchers but they wouldnt even need to touch it
it's just a convenient shorthand

The tenary operator?

Another merged suggestion, another duplicate.

Don't block-spam, even in duplicate topics.

actually, now that I think about it, it COULD be useful, for example:

define factorial (n)
set [factorial v] to (if <(n) = (0)> then (1) else ((n) * ((n) - (1))) mod ((n) - (1)) :: operators)

to me, this workaround doesn't really matter anymore!:

if <> then
else

now that i've changed my mind. i say support.

to make this work you need custom reporters as well

No you don't

yes you do, because the function will need to contain

((n) * (factorial ((n) - (1)) :: custom))

I never put that apart of the definition script I NEVER SAID THAT THE FACTORIAL THING WOULD BE A REPORTER
Do you even see me trying to put a factorial reporter? NO. Because I didn't want to

No, you wouldn't, because they're using the “call the block beforehand and make it update an output variable” workaround. Though yes, those would be nice.

Why is everyone here clueless? This is a 5 year old topic! Even helpful scratchers with 1000+ posts haven't seen that this is 5 years old! DON'T NECROPOST!!!

Suggestions can be necroposted on because they may be coming from a new dupe. Also, people may want to support/give workarounds.

Why was the old ternary operator topic dustbinned? Was it a dupe of this one? They could have at least merged it

We already have the

if <> then 

  

else

end

block. And what stuff were supposed to be in the inputs? No support.

Why does the age of the topic matter? Is the suggestion immediately invalid because it was made five years ago?

Necroposting is defined as posting a long time after the last post, not the first. And, you can't really necropost in the suggestions forum
