what's the output?

Question

alert(false?true:false);

I don't see why the output would be "false"?

Answer 1

ternary operator means this:

condition ? true : false

if condition is true, then choose the option after the ? symbol. if condition is false, then choose the option after the : symbol

condition is false, so it will choose the value after the : symbol which is "false"

Answer 2

U might wanna look up javascript conditional ternary operator to understand what's going on

Answer 3

If false then true else false

Since false is not true you get false

Answer 4

The output is false because the expression false? equals false. If it was true?, you would get true.

Answer 5

The syntax is
Condition given ? True : false
It's similar to if else - here option just after ? Gets printed if the condition is true and similarly the option just after : gets printed if the condition is false.
