compare

RESCRIPT

let compare: (bool, bool) => Ordering.t

Compares two booleans, returns an Ordering.t value.

Examples

RESCRIPT
Bool.compare(true, true) == Ordering.equal
Bool.compare(false, false) == Ordering.equal
Bool.compare(true, false) == Ordering.greater
Bool.compare(false, true) == Ordering.less

equal

RESCRIPT

let equal: (bool, bool) => bool

Checks if two booleans are equal and have the same value.

Examples

RESCRIPT
Bool.equal(true, true) == true
Bool.equal(false, false) == true
Bool.equal(true, false) == false
Bool.equal(false, true) == false

fromString

RESCRIPT

let fromString: string => option<bool>

Converts a string to a boolean.

Examples

RESCRIPT
Bool.fromString("true") == Some(true)
Bool.fromString("false") == Some(false)
Bool.fromString("notAValidBoolean") == None

fromStringExn

Deprecated

RESCRIPT

let fromStringExn: string => bool

Converts a string to a boolean. Beware, this function will throw an Invalid_argument exception if the string is not a valid boolean.

Examples

RESCRIPT
Bool.fromStringExn("true") == true
Bool.fromStringExn("false") == false
switch Bool.fromStringExn("notAValidBoolean") {
| exception Invalid_argument(_) => assert(true)
| _ => assert(false)
}

fromStringOrThrow

RESCRIPT

let fromStringOrThrow: string => bool

Converts a string to a boolean. Throws an Invalid_argument exception if the string is not a valid boolean.

Examples

RESCRIPT
Bool.fromStringOrThrow("true") == true
Bool.fromStringOrThrow("false") == false
switch Bool.fromStringOrThrow("notAValidBoolean") {
| exception Invalid_argument(_) => assert(true)
| _ => assert(false)
}

t

RESCRIPT

type t = bool

Type representing a boolean.

toString

RESCRIPT

let toString: bool => string

Converts a boolean to a string.
