I have this kind of test again, and again, and I feel like there is a more elegant way to do it.
(isset($country['capital'])) ? $country['capital'] : null Can you help me?

You can use or Operator In Laravel Blade template
$country['capital'] or null And In php 7 you can use Null coalescing operator
$country['capital'] ?? null The null coalescing operator (??) has been added as syntactic sugar for the common case of needing to use a ternary in conjunction with isset(). It returns its first operand if it exists and is not NULL; otherwise it returns its second operand.

That
or won't do much. It's not Laravel, it's PHP (unless I'm really missing something about Laravel overloading PHP operators!?).

What exactly does "in Laravel" mean then? Laravel is still written in PHP. Are you referring to some templating system? Then reference to documentation please.

So you're referring specifically to Blade template syntax. That's just one specific subcomponent of Laravel and not generally applicable to all "Laravel code".

Since PHP 7 you can do
$country['capital'] ?? null;

PHP 7.0 actually
isset()are useless. Put the whole ternary operator between parentheses while nesting them or in string concatenation. But the null coalescing operator is the way to go if you have PHP7
