Well, it requires you to know what a ternary operator is
It wouldn't be a captcha if the questions were like "what is
the most popular social network?". Also int doesn't implicitly
convert to bool.

I don't think you can go into programming from absolute zero.
I mean if you want to learn about history, what if history
forums presented you with something like:
"In which country was the first monarchy?"
Monarchy is prehistoric (watching the Troy movie should be
enough), and yes, history forums do something like that. Also
you don't study history out of the blue, you're taught it in
school.
You can as a student at the university, where you're just
introduced to programming.
How is monarchy prehistoric? Monarchies still exist today.

That is beside my point though, my point was not about history
and you completely missed it.
Facepalm.
