•The
"not" operator is used by placing the "not" symbol, !, before a boolean value.
//suppose that Julian stayed
up late
bool julianStayedUpLate =
true;
//will Julian be peppy
tomorrow?
bool julianIsPeppy =
!julianStayedUpLate;
What does
this code do?
This example
illustrates the "not" operator. At the end of this block of code,
the variable julianIsPeppy will take on the opposite value of julianStayedUpLate. If julianStayedUpLate were false, then julianIsPeppy would be true. In this case, the
opposite is true, so julianIsPeppy gets a value of false.
