Daily DRY tip

Hello, back again with the daily, erm, monthly DRY tip.

Again, a short piece of C++ code.

if( bBool )
  a = some_constant ;
else
  b = some_constant ;

Auwch, such repeatingness is almost unbearable to even glance at.
To the rescue, our dear friend the ternary operator.

( bBool ? a : b ) = some_constant ;

The brackets are there so the ternary operator does not get confused and tries to evaluate b = some_constant as one of the parts of the ternary expression.
