    As Kjuly mentioned it should be greater than sign, It’s just an if statement.

    (a > b) ? a : b
    

    If a is greater than b then a will be returned from MAX(a,b) function or if b is greater then if statement will be false and b will be returned.

    The ternary (conditional) operator in C
