Edit This isn't a question of whether or not the ternary operator is harmful. It's about whether or not there's a consensus about whether or not it should be used outside of assignment statements. /EditBased on a boolean, I want to call one of two different functions (with no return value). I wrote this bit of javascript:(condition) ? doThis(arg) : doThat(arg)Which I think looks cleaner than writing out an if-else statement:if(condition) {    doThis(arg);}else {    doThat(arg);}My colleagues strongly believe ternary statements should only be used in assignment statements. I can't find style guides that discuss this, probably because languages like Java and C# don't allow this at all (their compilers require ternary operators to return a value). Should this be considered a bad use of the ternary statement? Why?
Should the ternary operator be used outside of assignment statements?
