boolean
With this example we are going to demonstrate how to use a boolean
type in Java. The boolean
data type has only two possible values: true and false. Use this data type for simple flags that track true/false conditions. This data type represents one bit of information, but its “size” isn’t something that’s precisely defined.
- In short, to create variable of
boolean
type you should use the boolean
keyword in a variable.Let’s take a look at the code snippet that follows:
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 | package com.javacodegeeks.snippets.basics; public class BooleanExample { public static void main(String[] args) { boolean b1 = true ; boolean b2 = false ; boolean b3 = ( 2 > 1 ); System.out.println( "Value of boolean b1: " + b1); System.out.println( "Value of boolean b2: " + b2); System.out.println( "Value of boolean b3: " + b3); } } |
Output:
Value of boolean b1: true
Value of boolean b2: false
Value of boolean b3: true
This was an example of how to use a boolean
type in Java.
