What will be the output of the following statement for any two values of a & b entered by the user?

print(a) if a>b else print(b)

1. It will give an error
2. It will print the largest number
3. It will print the smallest number
4. None of these

It will print the largest number

Reason — This is a shorthand if-else statement. If the condition a > b is true, the value of a is printed, otherwise, the value of b is printed. Therefore, the larger of the two numbers is printed.
