Stacking Multiple Ternary Operators in PHP

Question

This is what I wrote :

 $Myprovince = (
($province == 6) ? \"city-1\" :
($province == 7) ? \"city-2\" :
($province == 8) ? \"city-3\" :
($province == 30) ? \         


        

Answer 1

Use switch instead. Ternary operators really shouldn't be used for more than single conditions, as they quickly become very difficult to understand.

switch ($province) {
    case 6:
        $Myprovince = 'city-1';
        break;
    case 7:
        $Myprovince = 'city-2';
        break;
    case 8:
        $Myprovince = 'city-3';
        break;
    case 30:
        $Myprovince = 'city-4';
        break;
    default:
        $Myprovince = 'out of borders';
}
