Checking the “boolean” result of an “int” type

Question

I\'m learning Java, coming from C and I found an interesting difference between languages with the boolean type. In C there is no bool/ean

Answer 1

You could try something like that. Boolean i = true; if (i) System.out.println("i is true");

Just initialize it as a boolean value rather than an integer.

Answer 2

Try BooleanUtils from Apache common-lang.

  BooleanUtils.toBoolean(0) = Boolean.FALSE
  BooleanUtils.toBoolean(1) = Boolean.TRUE
  BooleanUtils.toBoolean(2) = Boolean.TRUE
