Answer 1

Direct translation of your sample code:

 arraeck(a, n) ? printf("YES") : printf("NO");

Or even shorter:

 printf(arraeck(a, n) ? "YES" : "NO");

This is called the (ternary) conditional operator ?: and it’s not always the best solution to use it, as it can be hard to read. You usually only use it if you need the result of the conditional, like in the second code sample (the operator evaluates to "YES" or "NO" here).

In the first sample, the operator is not used as an an expression, so you should better use an explicit if (it’s not that long after all):

if (arraeck(a, n))
    printf("YES");
else
    printf("NO");
