I'm just getting into Python and I really like the terseness of the syntax. However, is there an easier way of writing an `if`-`then`-`else` statement so it fits on one line?

For example:

```
if count == N:
    count = 0
else:
    count = N + 1

```

Is there a simpler way of writing this? I mean, in Objective-C I would write this as:

```
count = count == N ? 0 : count + 1;

```

Is there something similar for Python?

**Update**

I know that in this instance I can use `count == (count + 1) % N`. 

I'm asking about the general syntax.
