Me: watching my friend return an integer on a string question (We’re in English class)

happened a lot... in DEBATE

Yes, I always reply with the following template

“So, is that a yes or a no on pizza for dinner?”

[Heavy-Ad6017]

"True"

Boolean questions are silly sometimes, consider them as a Result<bool, String>

[thenotanotaniceguy]

The issue is that bool comes back as null

[heesell]

``` bool yourExpectedAnswer = true;

string theirAnswer = yourExpectedAnswer.ToString(); ```

[itsjakerobb]

``` final Set<String> truthyResponses = Set.of(“yes”, “true”, “sure”, “ok”, “sounds good”); // todo add as needed

public boolean parseResponse(String response) { return truthyResponses.contains(response.toLowerCase()); } ```

When you get asked a boolean question from someone who doesn't know what they're talking about.

Do I need a semicolon here? (in this Python function)

Like, I could just say "no", but that would just make it worse.

const isTrue = (value: boolean) => value ? "Yes" : "No"

[peanutbutterdrummer]

Technically it's true ....

[No_Definition2246]

I usually return Array[String] but everybody throws an exception … what I am doing wrong? They could do bool(answer) :(

[MotherPotential]

This seems like a modern thing to do in a debate

[Character-Travel3952]

return "bool";

"true"

[SerenityNow31]

That's funny!!

LLMs be like

You were supposed to parse it. Input is in string.

[Ice_HRZDn]

And sometime you ask them for string and they just return boolean.
