The conditional operators is used to construct the conditional expression. A conditional operator pair "? :".

    Syntax : Expression1? Expression2 : Expression3 ;

The Operator ?: works as follows: Expression1 is evaluated first. If it is true, then the Expression2 is evaluated and becomes the value of the expression. If Expression1 is false, then Expression3 is evaluated and its value becomes the value of the expression.

Example : a = 500;

                    b = 700;

                    x = (a > b) ? a : b ;

                    Here x get the value of b because expression a > b is false.

                    x = b = 700
