Answer 1

X=8

Y=10

Z=8

((8+10)>8) ? (++8 - 10) : (--8+ ++10)

(18>8) ...................... {TRUE}

∴ (9-10) = -1

The output will be

-1

Answer 2

Ternary operator:

(Condition) ? (if_true) ? (if_false)

Sample Program:

x = 8, y = 10, z = 8;

(x + y > z) ?? (++x - y) : (--z + ++y)

Explanation:

(8 + 10 > 8) ?? (9 - 10) : (7 + 11)

Here, (8 + 10 > 8 = 18 > 8) is true, So the first statement is executed i.e 9 - 10 = -1. If the condition is false, the 2nd statement would be executed.

Therefore, the output will be 9 - 10 = -1.

Hope it helps!
