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(): booldeclare function bool(x: number | bool): booldeclare function bool(x: number | bool): boolA 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.
