Single line If Statement

In most programming languages, you can use a single line if statement to execute a specific block of code only if a certain condition is met.

In Python, you can use the ternary operator (also called the conditional operator) to write a single line if statement. The ternary operator has the following syntax:

value_if_true if condition else value_if_false

Here is an example of how to use a single line if statement in Python:

# Define a variable

x = 5

# Use a single line if statement to set a value based on a condition

y = 10 if x > 5 else 20
print(y) # Output: 20

In this example, we use the ternary operator to set the value of the y variable to 10 if x is greater than 5, and to 20 otherwise.

Single line if statements are useful when you want to write concise code, but you should use them with caution, as they can make your code harder to read if overused.
