to_bool

Builtin index · Collections & strings

result = to_bool(x)

Input: x · Output: result

What it is

For a Str, x is parsed, not weighed: "true"/"false" (any case) and any number spelling work, and anything else errors — because a config file holding "false" means false, and truthiness would call that non-empty string true. For every other type this is exactly Qu's own truthiness, the same rule if and while use.
