Convert Int to Bool in C#

1. Convert Integer to Boolean With the Convert.ToBoolean() Method in C
2. Convert Integer to Boolean With the switch() Statement in C

This tutorial will discuss the methods to convert an integer value to a boolean value in C#.

Convert Integer to Boolean With the Convert.ToBoolean() Method in C

Since both integer and boolean are base data types, we can convert an integer value to a boolean value using the Convert class. The Convert.ToBoolean() method converts an integer value to a boolean value in C#. In C#, the integer value 0 is equivalent to false in boolean, and the integer value 1 is equivalent to true in boolean.

using System;

namespace convert_int_to_bool
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int i = 1;
            bool b = Convert.ToBoolean(i);
            Console.WriteLine(b);
        }
    }
}

Output:

True

In the above code, we converted the integer variable i with value 1 to the boolean variable b with value true with the Convert.ToBoolean(i) function in C#.

Convert Integer to Boolean With the switch() Statement in C

We can also use the switch() statement to achieve the same goal as the previous example. The switch() statement tests a variable for equality among a list of different values in C#. We can use the integer variable inside the switch() statement and assign false to the boolean variable in the case of 0 integer value or assign true to the boolean value in the case of 1 integer value. The following code example shows us how to convert an integer variable to a boolean variable with the switch() statement in C#.

using System;

namespace convert_int_to_bool
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int i = 1;
            bool b;
            switch (i)
            {
                case 0:
                    b = false;
                    Console.WriteLine(b);
                    break;
                case 1:
                    b = true;
                    Console.WriteLine(b);
                    break;
            }
        }
    }
}

Output:

True

In the above code, we converted the integer variable i with value 1 to the boolean variable b with value true with the switch(i) statement in C#.
