Using function's return value in if statement

Question

Hopefully a quick question here.

Can you use a function\'s returned value in a if statement? I.e.

function queryThis(request) {

  return false;

}

if(q

In sort, yes you can. If you know it is going to return a boolean you can even make it a bit simpler:

if ( isBar("foo") ) {
  doSomething();
}
