Here's the code in either C or C#: return ( (price > 100) ? 10 : 5); Computer languages are for people. It should really be more like this: # # Description of what this does. # PRICE-THRESHOLD = 100 LOWER-PRICE = 5 UPPER-PRICE = 10 IF PRICE > PRICE-THRESHOLD RETURN UPPER-PRICE ELSE RETURN LOWER-PRICE Alternatively, use Excel: =IF( (price > 100), 10, 5 ) Excel is cryptic, but a lot of finance people understand it.

With C it can be more like what you want. Stop using ?: if you don't like it. if (price > 100) return 10; else return 5; Replace with more named variables if you want.

  I'm going to guess wildgift was being sarcastic. COBOL syntax is so needlessly verbose it interferes with the understanding of the actual formula. I contend that return price > 100 ? 10 : 5; is way more readable.

That code works in C, C#, and JavaScript.
