I was reading some code and found this line:
mil[j+1] = mil[j] <? res[j];
What the "<?" mean? My first guess would be a conditional, like in "a<b?c:d", but the < is a binary operator, so it doesn't make much sense.
Thanks.

I believe that's shorthand for:
i.e. it returns the lesser of the two values.Code:mil [j + 1] = mil [j] < res [j] ? mil [j] : res [j];
It is a compiler extension for gcc, and is not standard C++. I also think it means exactly what you guessed it means. It's just shorthand.
Interesting, well I certainly learnt something today. I guess >? works too? What about <=? etc?
Of course on most compilers it's what we call a "syntax error".

They're all deprecated and may have even be removed in 4.3. I think I remember something to that effect in the changelog.
