JavaScript Booleans

JavaScript booleans can have one of two values: true or false.

The Boolean() Function

You can use the Boolean() function to find out if an expression is true:

Example

Boolean(10 > 9) // returns true

Try it Yourself »

Or even easier:

Example

(10 > 9) // also returns true
10 > 9 // also returns true

Try it Yourself »
