3 conditions – ternary conditional chains javascript react

So im just playing around with the rick and morty api and I’ve never done a ternary with 3 conditions. Mozilla docs says you can, but it’s not working for me. The code below shows the characters with the status alive in green and the rest are purple. I want alive to be green, dead to be red, unknown to be purple. Im using chakra ui if anyones curious. What am I doing wrong?

<Badge
  colorScheme={ c.status === "Alive" ? "green"
      : "unknown" ? "purple"
      : "red"
  }
>
  {c.status}
</Badge>

>Solution :

You have your symbols mixed up. Grouping with parentheses, your code is equivalent to

c.status === "Alive" ? "green"
      : ("unknown" ? "purple" : "red")

You need instead

c.status === 'Alive'
  ? 'green'
  : c.status === 'unknown' ? 'purple' : 'red'

Or you could use a lookup table instead – it’d be more readable.

const colorsByStatus = {
  Alive: 'green',
  unknown: 'purple',
  dead: 'red'
};

// ...

colorSceme={colorsByStatus[c.status]}
