Let's understand, what is the ternary operator?
The ternary operator is a part of the syntax for basic conditional expressions in several programming languages. It is commonly referred to as the conditional operator and requires three operands, a condition, true block, and false block.

Now, coming to the question, does Go language have/supports ternary operator?

The answer is - No. Go programming language does not have a ternary operator. You may use the following to achieve the same result:

if expr {
    // true block
} else {
    // false block
}

Example:

// Golang program to find
// largest number two numbers

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
	x := 10
	y := 20
	var largest int

	if x > y {
		largest = x
	} else {
		largest = y
	}

	fmt.Println("Largest number is:", largest)
}

Output:

Largest number is: 20
