Is there a short-circuit OR in PHP that returns the left-most value?

Question

In some languages, you can do

$a = $b OR $c OR die(\"no value\");

That is, the OR will short-circuit, only evaluating values from left to right

Answer 1

This should work:

$a = (($f1=func1()) ? $f1 : ($f2=func2()) ?  $f2 : func3()) );
