从PowerShell版本7开始，三元运算符被内置到PowerShell中。

1 -gt 2 ? "Yes" : "No"
# Returns "No"

1 -gt 2 ? 'Yes' : $null
# Get a $null response for false-y return value

我也在寻找一个更好的答案，虽然爱德华文章中的解决方案是“ok”，但我在这篇博客文章中提出了一个更自然的解决方案

简短而甜蜜:

# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Name:   Invoke-Assignment
# Alias:  =
# Author: Garrett Serack (@FearTheCowboy)
# Desc:   Enables expressions like the C# operators: 
#         Ternary: 
#             <condition> ? <trueresult> : <falseresult> 
#             e.g. 
#                status = (age > 50) ? "old" : "young";
#         Null-Coalescing 
#             <value> ?? <value-if-value-is-null>
#             e.g.
#                name = GetName() ?? "No Name";
#             
# Ternary Usage:  
#         $status == ($age > 50) ? "old" : "young"
#
# Null Coalescing Usage:
#         $name = (get-name) ? "No Name" 
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

# returns the evaluated value of the parameter passed in, 
# executing it, if it is a scriptblock   
function eval($item) {
    if( $item -ne $null ) {
        if( $item -is "ScriptBlock" ) {
            return & $item
        }
        return $item
    }
    return $null
}

# an extended assignment function; implements logic for Ternarys and Null-Coalescing expressions
function Invoke-Assignment {
    if( $args ) {
        # ternary
        if ($p = [array]::IndexOf($args,'?' )+1) {
            if (eval($args[0])) {
                return eval($args[$p])
            } 
            return eval($args[([array]::IndexOf($args,':',$p))+1]) 
        }

        # null-coalescing
        if ($p = ([array]::IndexOf($args,'??',$p)+1)) {
            if ($result = eval($args[0])) {
                return $result
            } 
            return eval($args[$p])
        } 

        # neither ternary or null-coalescing, just a value  
        return eval($args[0])
    }
    return $null
}

# alias the function to the equals sign (which doesn't impede the normal use of = )
set-alias = Invoke-Assignment -Option AllScope -Description "FearTheCowboy's Invoke-Assignment."

这样就可以很容易地做一些事情，比如(更多的例子在博客文章中):

$message == ($age > 50) ? "Old Man" :"Young Dude" 

尝试powershell的switch语句作为替代，特别是对于变量赋值-多行，但可读。

的例子,

$WinVer = switch ( Test-Path -Path "$Env:windir\SysWOW64" ) {
  $true    { "64-bit" }
  $false   { "32-bit" }
}
"This version of Windows is $WinVer"

我能够想出的最接近PowerShell的构造是:

@({'condition is false'},{'condition is true'})[$condition]

Powershell 7有这个功能。

PS C:\Users\js> 0 ? 'yes' : 'no'
no
PS C:\Users\js> 1 ? 'yes' : 'no'
yes

$result = If ($condition) {"true"} Else {"false"}

为了在表达式中或作为表达式使用，而不仅仅是赋值，将它包装在$()中，这样:

write-host  $(If ($condition) {"true"} Else {"false"})
