Converting Boolean to Integer in Java without If-Statements

Question

I\'m wondering if there\'s a way to convert a boolean to an int without using if statements (as not to break the pipeline). For example, I could write

int bo         


        

Answer 1

A reasonable alternative to ising to the ternary to avoid an "if":

private static Boolean[] array = {false, true};

int boolToInt( boolean b ){
    return Arrays.binarySearch(array, b);
}

Note that I consider this s "puzzle" question, so if coding it myself i would use the ternary..
