How to do a single line If statement in VBScript for Classic-ASP?

Question

The \"single line if statement\" exists in C# and VB.NET as in many other programming and script languages in the following format

lunchLocation = (dayOfTheW         


        

Answer 1

There's a weird trick possible (hi, Python!) for exact one-liner:

lunchLocation = array("Food Court", "Fuddruckers")(-(dayOfTheWeek = "Tuesday"))

The "magic" works because of a boolean operation specifics in VBScript. True is actually -1 and False is 0, therefore we can use it as an index for array (just get rid of a minus). Then the first item of array will be a value for False condition and second item for True.
