String to bool (need help)

Question

I would like to get user Input true or false, but i don't know how to do it. And Convert.ToBool doesn't work.
Some ideas ?

Answer 1

Maybe you meant to use Convert.ToBoolean()?

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.convert.toboolean

Answer 2

bool a;
String b = ...;
a = b.Equals("true");

Answer 3

String st = args[0];
if(st.compareTo(”true”)==0 || st.compareTo(”false”)==0)
{
boolean b=Boolean.parseBoolean(st);
System.out.println(”” + b);
}
else
System.out.println(”not a boolean value”);
}

The above program is considering strings

If the string is either true or false
It will be converted to boolean and printed it

Otherwise, it is printing a warning message

Not a boolean value

This code is as per java which is similar to c#
