title: How to do an inline if/otherwise (aka ternary operator) in Velocity?
body: <p>In pure Java, I could do this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>value = (a &gt; b) ? a : b;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Whereas in Velocity, the long form would be:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#if($a &gt; $b)          
      #set($value = $a)
  #else
      #set($value = $b)
  #end
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a short form in Velocity? I want to be able to do an if/otherwise inline.</p>
