[ajug-members] Ternary Operator - simplification or complication?

[Jim Worthington]

I like the ternary operator and use it frequently. It is an elegant way to
express conditional assignment.

I just opened up a can of worms within our development community by stating
that in certain cases, I find that the Ternary Operator simplifies code.
I've been given the impression that I'm the last Java developer alive that
believes the ternary operator should ever be used. I'm interested in hearing
the opinions of users on this group. 

Has the ternary operator helped you? Caused you great grief? Should it even
be in the language?
