It's a ternary conditional operator - if the hour variable is at least 12, return "PM" otherwise return "AM".

It's a conditional operator, not a comparison operator. It isn't a function so it doesn't return anything. And this is a FAQ with many duplicates that doesn't need another answer: [avoid trying to answer questions which... ...have already been asked and answered many times before.](https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-answer) – Quentin Oct 07 '22 at 06:55
