I have being trying to pass the challenge but it keeps telling me to add the boolean expresion in the ternary operator. Can someone help me please?
int value = -1;
string textColor = null;
(value < 0) ? textColor = "red" : textColor = "green";

Courses Plus Student 22,191 PointsIn order to assign a value while using a ternary operator you must place the ternary conditional on the right hand side of the variable assignment. So simply remove the textColor
equals from within your ternary conditional.
Example:
variableName = expression ? truthValue : falseValue
textColor = value < 0 ? "red" : "green"
