Oops, I got that wrong.
Its

<test> ? <true value> : <false value>

But the end result is the same. It's an expression
that returns a single value depending on the result
of a test.

Sorry for any confusion caused.

Also it's worth pointing out that in fact the "values"
returned can themselves be expressions (in both the
C or Python versions) But that's usually a bad idea
since it can result in pretty convoluted code!
