 Yes.Even the ? operator gets clumsy if it is being used to fork two different paths of complex code.
 Much better to use an 'If' with some long blocks, or even inline function for clarity and still retain the speed.
   Esp with 'C', it's DIFFICULT to keep it READABLE.
   Difficult to make sure even YOU can understand
   how it works in a day, a week, a year.
   The K&R look and feel is pretty good for that.
   Alas the lang makes it possible to completely
   ruin that approach - and many DO, just because
   they can, makes 'em look more clever.
   But the code doesn't REALLY compile/run much faster.
   SAME underlying STUFF being done regardless.
   So :
     if(x>y)
     {
       .....
     }
     else
     {
       .....
     }
   I pref to not put the leading bracket on the
   same line as the 'if' or 'else' because then
   it's easier to pick out the block by eye -
   just look for the '{' on the left.
