$var = "first part of string ".(($a==$b)?$c:$d)." rest of string";

and I feel it would be more elegant to be able to do something like:

$var ="first part of string {(($a==$b)?$c:$d)} rest of string";

Strange as it may seem, you'll probably find that this is the fastest method:

'first part of string '.(($a==$b)?$c:$d).' rest of string'

I benchmarked this a while ago and was surprised to find that multiple concats with single quotes are significantly faster than interpolation.
