Shorter, more pythonic way of writing an if statement

Question

I have this

bc = \'off\'

if c.page == \'blog\':
    bc = \'on\'

print(bc)

Is there a more pythonic (and/or shorter) way of writing this in Pyth

Answer 1

You can use,

a = b if c else d 

but if you are using a python version prior to 2.5,

bc = c.page == "blog" and "on" or "off"

can do the trick also.
