Could you post the code and clarify the problem.

Not clear. What do you mean by passing string. Is it a method parameter or a public variable?

The wording of this question does not permit a solution: interpreted literally, it would imply a function that took a string, and if that string converted to #1 it would return boolean 'true, and if it converted to boolean 'false would return #zero.

Solution 2

Based on the question, if input is 1 then output will be true otherwise false.

C#

static bool ConvertToBoolean(string dataToParse)
{
    List<string> booleanList = new List<string> { "1", "0" };
    return string.IsNullOrEmpty(dataToParse) ? false : booleanList.Contains(dataToParse);
}

Updated:

C#

static bool ConvertToBoolean(string dataToParse)
{
    string trueString = "1";
    return string.IsNullOrEmpty(dataToParse) ? false : dataToParse == trueString;
}

Hope it helps.
:)

The above code will not perform the behaviour you state. Instead it will return true for values of either "1" or "0" and false for everything else.

I believe what you were trying to achieve here was along the lines of

static bool ConvertToBoolean(string dataToParse)
{
return string.IsNullOrEmpty(dataToParse) ? false : dataToParse == "1";
}

Solution 1

C#

int x = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToBoolean("true"));
int y = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToBoolean("false"));

After running the code above, x will be 1, and y will be 0.
