title: Python - nesting if else inside return
body: <p>Can an if-else expression be the argument of 'return'?</p>
  
  <p>Here's an example of what I'm trying to do:</p>
  
  <pre><code>return m +
      if a:
          x
      elif b:
          y
      else c:
          z
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I could write as:</p>
  
  <pre><code>addend = m
  if a:
          m += x
      elif b:
          m += y
      else c:
          m += z
  return m
  </code></pre>
