Python has the same "rightward conditional" thing.

Any time I use it, I wish python had just gone with the normal ternary (? :) operator.

No, python writes the ternary operator with words, it doesn't have rightward conditionals.

The key difference is that the else clause is required in the Python ternary, where it's optional in a conditional.

Doesn't make it any less irritating.
