Error in Program

Question

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()

{
int n;

cout << "Enter number: ";
cin >> n;

(n >= 1) ? cout << "It is positive"
:(n < 1) ? cout << "It is negative"
:(n==0) ? cout << "It is equal to zero";
}

Expected before token ';'

Help me solve this problem.

Answer 1

The logic prints 0 as negative. So you must first check n==0 , instead of n < 1 before;

Answer 2

n>0 ? cout << "It is positive"
: n<0 ? cout << "It is negative"
: cout << "It is equal to zero";

// Or

string r = n>0 ? "positive" : n<0 ? "negative" : "equal to zero";
cout << "It is " + r;
