Boolean to integer conversion
I have 3 separate Boolean variables, bit1, bit2 & bit3 and I need to calculate the decimal integer equivalent in JavaScript?
Solution 1:
+true //=> 1
+false //=> 0
+!true //=> 0
+!false //=> 1
Solution 2:
Ternary operator is a quick one line solution:
var intVal = bit1 ? 1 : 0;
If you're unfamiliar with the ternary operator, it takes the form
<boolean> ? <result if true> : <result if false>
From Sime Vidas in the comments,
var intVal = +bit1;
works just as well and is faster.
