Ternary operator in PowerShell

Question

Per this PowerShell blog post, you can create an alias to define a ?: operator:

set-alias ?: Invoke-Ternary -Option AllScope -Description "PSCX filter alias"
filter Invoke-Ternary ([scriptblock]$decider, [scriptblock]$ifTrue, [scriptblock]$ifFalse) 
{
   if (&$decider) { 
      &$ifTrue
   } else { 
      &$ifFalse 
   }
}

Use it like this:

$total = ($quantity * $price ) * (?:  {$quantity -le 10} {.9} {.75})
