Yes, it was added in version 2.5. It's frowned upon by some pythonistas, so keep that in mind. The syntax is: a if test else b First test is evaluated, then either a or b is returned based on the Boolean value of test; if test evaluates to True a is returned, else b is returned. For example: >>> 'true' if True else 'false' 'true' >>> 'true' if False else 'false' 'false'
