如何简化这个条件？

Question

I'm learning about using if-else else-if conditions and I am wondering if there is anyway to simplify these statement below. Can I combine all of them into one statement?

if (a < 0) {
    a = 1;
}
if (b < 0) {
    b = 1;
}
if (c < 0) {
    c = 1;
}

Answer 1

It seems not possible to combine all your mentioned if statements into one as a , b , c are all independent variables. However, to make your code more readable, you can take advantage of method.

eg Implement a method like this:

int processNegativeNumber(int num) {
    if (num < 0) {
        return 1;
    }
    return num;
}

Now, you can call it like this:

a = processNegativeNumber(a);
b = processNegativeNumber(b);
c = processNegativeNumber(c);

Answer 2

You could use ternary operator to save some chars:-)

a = a < 0 ? 1 : a;
b = b < 0 ? 1 : b;
c = c < 0 ? 1 : c;
