#' Fast if_else
#'
#' @description
#' Fast version of `base::ifelse()`.
#'
#' @param condition Conditions to test on
#' @param true Values to return if conditions evaluate to `TRUE`
#' @param false Values to return if conditions evaluate to `FALSE`
#' @param missing Value to return if an element of test is `NA`
#' @inheritParams rlang::args_dots_empty
#' @param ptype Optional ptype to override output type
#' @param size Optional size to override output size
#'
#' @export

#' x <- 1:5
#' if_else(x < 3, 1, 0)

#' # Can also be used inside of mutate()
#' df <- data.table(x = x)

#' df %>%
#'   mutate(new_col = if_else(x < 3, 1, 0))
