Amruta use it like this: public class Program { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println((10>9)?"10>9":"10<9"); } } Ternary operator has return type so its must return a value from ans either one of them....... Your function works on void method i.e print directly and it doesn't support void invocation inside it so it shows error.... Well I too didn't know that much.....so sorry😅 Hope this helps.....😊

Amruta They are ternary/conditional operators, not conditional statements ● U can replace them by if-else conditional statements in above code to make that work. Ketan U can remove 1 more bracket in condition 10>9, that will also work ☺

System.out.println((10>9)?"10>9":"10<9"); Here you may put a string or a variable. I should do it this way: result = (10>9)?"10>9":"10<9" ; System.out.println(result)

It is a compile-time error for either operand expression to be an invocation of a void method and System.out.println is void (does not return any value). https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15977031/java-ternary-without-assignment

public class Program { public static void main(String[] args) { /*here you can declare 2 variables for 10 & 9 values*/ if (10>9) { System.out.println("10>9"); } else { System.out.println("10<9"); } } } /*I think! in java it should be like that😊*/

The ternary operator should always provide as a value. If you are going to make statements using ternaries you will get errors. So the ternary operator should go inside the println() method.

I did it this way...is it okay for you...? public class Program { public static void main(String[] args) { int a=9; int b=10; System.out.println("10>9?"); if(10>9) { System.out.println("10>9"); } else{ System.out.println("10<9"); } } }

u can use if/else for better understanding

It seems that kind of code is not used in Java...but if you try to do it that way it becomes more complicated
