Do this and this too with do.

condition ? do { this(); this_too(); } : the_other_thing()

A sample program that does that follows:

#!/usr/bin/perl

my $a = 1;

$result = ($a > 1) ? (print "\nDo this\n") ? (print "\nDo this also\n") ? "" : 
          (print "\nOr else do this\n");


$a = 6;

$result = ($a > 1) ? (print "\nDo this\n") ? (print "\nDo this also") ? "" : 
          (print "\nOr else do this\n");
