If (condition)
return true
else
return false
😂😂😂

I do not see a problem here.

@Cyanite It's better to use this:
return condition
than that longer version.

@Csaki Ohhhhhhh.... I see now.

Im so guilty of this

But why?

If you want to return a Boolean and the condition might return 0, this is actually useful. But I think this is mainly a PHP use-case...

how about this:

int result = foo();
if result
bar();
else
fubar();

/** i changed to this **/

foo() && bar() || fubar(); // oh no that's too complicated

foo() ? bar() : fubar(); // that's ugly

... these people deserve death by a thousand cuts

In JS, return !!condition; works like a clock

I see this soon many times :'(

@nordlicht
It's better
return condition == true

Behold! The best option that exists:

if (condition != true)
return !condition;
else if (!condition == false)
return !condition;

Truth table:

Condition Output
false | true
true | false

you could as well use ternary operator in c++ as:

return (value == true ? true : false)

this would be more efficient code :D

runs away 😲

Return condition;

or at least

If (condition)
Return true
Return false

I mean. I see it, then I don't see it.

@cankarales Thank you!

@apex IT BURNS!!!!

return condition ? true : false;

@davide
Sure, didn't say it's the best or most elegant way to do it. Just wanted to point out that it might actually make sense depending on language and context

@pttsky just saw this rant I was going to point it out if u didn't. Use it all the time. Love how terse it is.

return !!(condition)
