bool

Function

Converts a numeric scalar to bool: true where x is not zero, spelled as the compare x != 0.

The signature and the sentence under each name are the compiler's own text at commit 26de7be8.

Syntax

declare function bool(): bool
declare function bool(x: number | bool): bool
declare function bool(x: number | bool): bool

A number in a parameter or a return position is the scalar slot. The ambient file declares a GPU scalar as a branded number whose brand is optional, so a literal and any branded scalar both fill it.

type f32 = number & { readonly [f32Tag]?: true }

A declaration you write still needs a width, and a bare number on a field or a parameter is refused; the TypeScript constructs page carries that row with the compiler's own message.

Parameters

  • x optional number | bool

Return value

bool

Description

A bool argument is returned as it is.
