Question

How do I write this if statement with conditional operator?

int TopicID = ...
int LastPost = ...

if (LastPost == 0) 
{
    LastPost = TopicID
} else 
{
    LastPost = LastPost;
}

I tried this:

LastPost == 0 ? LastPost == TopicID : LastPost == LastPost;

But it didn’t work so as you can see im not really that pro.. 😛

Answer 1

LastPost = (LastPost == 0 ? TopicID : LastPost);

Anyway, what is the sense of assigning LastPost to itself? Just remove your whole else block and you’ll have the simplest way for what you’re trying to achieve.
