Ternary operators were amazing when I first learned about them.
I agree that there is a time and place for them. For a simple concept (someone mentioned assigning values or triggering a this or that scenario) they are great. But, beyond a short line of code, they do get messy and hard to read, even if its less code.
Is it really better code if is take my slow, human brain more time to figure it out before I can make changes?

I totally think that no, if my brain has to think too much to make a change, I did something wrong!!
And that’s what I’ve been running into a lot lately, decisions I’ve made to have less lines, or to do something faster, I’m definitely regretting
Too much thinking is also why I avoid using while loops. 🤷🏽♀️
Yes!!!
I think I’ve only written like 5 while loops in my whole career!!
Thanks so much for reading!!
I've yet to use one outside of practice assignments that say to use a while loop.
if/else or for loops for the win. I'll use a simple ternary, as a treat.
Foreach is what I always try and reach for (no pun intended)😆😆
