note 9441 deleted from Operator Precedence by torben

The ternary functional conditional operator (?:) is listed in the precedence chart, but doesn't seem to be defined anywhere in the operator documentation. It's familiar from C and related languages, but since some people are learning PHP as their first language, it is well to define it here. foo ? bar : baz will return bar if foo is true, and baz if foo is false. In other words, it's like an "if..else" statement inside an expression. For example: echo "Your number is ", ($x>4)? "too big" : "just right";
