Hello There,

I was wondering if perl got the equivalent of php for the coditional check below:

Code:

Condition?print "true":print "false";

Ex:
isset($_)?print "$_":print "\$_ is not set";

When I try to use it it give my the following error:
syntax error at ./shutdown_all line 33, near ")?"

Hi angel115,

Try the below in Perl.

print defined($_)? "$_": "\$_ is not defined";
