Our Professor gave us a predefined Datebase with access methods. The whole database is full of
value == 0 ? false : true

How can this guy teach programming languages when he can't apply a simple != operand

    Because you don't learn a language.
    You learn the concept of transofrming your ideas to code, and later learn the language by yourself.

    It all depends on the language used, some languages can not use an int as a bool.

    @papierbouwer thought that the OP's rant was more on the evaluation of a 0 or not. In C and some other languages you could write it like: value? true: false; which basicly is a int to bool cast.

    @papierbouwer When used wisely it can save some lines of code, but sometimes people fail to realize the simple answer infront of them

    @Awlex Lines of code aren't everything. The real question I think that you should ask is: which one of the two is more effecient during runtime.
