Is there something similar to ?: operator (C/C++) in Python?

This won't work like I was thinking it would.


But to get back to your is there a ? operator question...

Try this.

def foo():
    return "foo"

def boo():
    return "boo"

print (foo, boo)[1>0]()    # prints "boo"
print (foo, boo)[1<0]()    # prints "foo"
