n the previous video, we saw how a ternary if statement could be used in place of an if/else statement to determine the value to return from a method. Ternary if statements can also be used to determine the value to use when initializing a variable. Use a ternary if statement instead of an if/else statement to initialize the textColor variable to the string value "red" if the value variable is less than "0", otherwise initialize the textColor variable to the string value "green".
int value = -1;
string textColor = null;
if (value < 0)
{
textColor = "red"; textColor = "green";
}
