php - Ignore notices in ternary conditions -

i wondering if it's possible selective in context undefined variable can ignored. ternary conditions, idea can set default value undefined setting, so:

$date = $_post['date'] ?: date(); 

and use this, had ignore e_notice errors.

however, don't idea of undefined variables being ignored, , accidentally using undefined variables go unnoticed. wondering if there possibility of middle ground situation?

just clarify, aware of non-ternary solutions, such

$date = (isset($_post['date'])) ? $_post['date'] : date(); // or $date = date();  if(isset($_post['date'])) {    $date = $_post['date']; } 

but i'm trying ask is, there way reap benefits of shorthand ternary conditions, while still avoiding supressing notices undefined variables.

just prepend @:

$date = @$_post['date'] ?: date('y-m-d');         ^ 

anyway, suggest verify isset instead:

$date = isset($_post['date']) ? $_post['date'] : date('y-m-d');
