In Ruby  the condition and the then part of an if expression must be separated by either an expression separator  i e    or a newline  or the then keyword   So  all of these would work   if  item rigged then  Yes  else  No  end  if  item rigged   Yes  else  No  end  if  item rigged    Yes  else  No  end   There is also a conditional operator in Ruby  but that is completely unnecessary  The conditional operator is needed in C  because it is an operator  in C  if is a statement and thus cannot return a value  so if you want to return a value  you need to use something which can return a value  And the only things in C that can return a value are functions and operators  and since it is impossible to make if a function in C  you need an operator   In Ruby  however  if is an expression  In fact  everything is an expression in Ruby  so it already can return a value  There is no need for the conditional operator to even exist  let alone use it   BTW  it is customary to name methods which are used to ask a question with a question mark at the end  like this    item rigged    This shows another problem with using the conditional operator in Ruby    item rigged     Yes     No    It s simply hard to read with the multiple question marks that close to each other
