I came across a thread on the web browsing around for a solution to another problem when I came across a forum thread that seemed to go on forever about converting a boolean, true/false, to an int, 1/0.
I wanted to slap them after seeing how so many people couldn’t find such a simple answer! So here it is incase you need to know how to do it in only 1 line of code!
convert.toint32(Boolean)
I couldn’t believe it when I saw people telling the person to use if statements and use a variable to hold the value. Granted it was a small forum, but still it shocks me how little people know about the convert method in .net.
If you want to see what I’m talking about look here:

It makes me sort of wonder if these people do this for a living… I hope not… or else I so need a better job.
