Use of Boolean? in if expression

Question

If I have a nullable Boolean b, I can do the following comparison in Java:

Boolean b = ...;
if (b != null && b) {
   /* Do something */
         


        

Answer 1

You can compare nullable boolean with true, false or null using equality operator:

var b: Boolean? = null
if (b == true) {
    // b was not null and equal true
} 
if (b == false) {
   // b is false 
}
if (b != true) { 
   // b is null or false 
}
