Ternary vs If-Else: Which is More Efficient?

Can you explain the performance differences between using a ternary operator and an if-else statement?

Sure! Ternary operators can be more concise and sometimes faster, but it depends on the context and complexity.

Are there specific scenarios where one is better than the other?

Yes, for simple conditions, ternary operators are often preferred for readability. For complex logic, if-else is clearer.

What about readability? Does it affect performance?

Readability doesn't directly affect performance, but clearer code can lead to fewer bugs and easier maintenance.

Can you give me an example of both in code?

Certainly! Here's a simple example:

Ternary: let result = (a > b) ? 'A is greater' : 'B is greater';

If-Else:

if (a > b) {
    result = 'A is greater';
} else {
    result = 'B is greater';
}
