The boolean.toString() method is used to return a string either “true” or “false” depending upon the value of the specified boolean object.
Syntax:
boolean.toString()
Parameter: This method does not accept any parameter.
Return Values: It returns a string either “true” or “false” depending upon the value of the specified boolean object.
Below are examples of the Boolean toString() method.
Example 1:
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj// is created for the value 27let obj = new Boolean(27);// Here boolean.toString() function is// used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
true
Example 2:
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj is // created for the value true.let obj = new Boolean(true);// Here boolean.toString() function// is used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
true
Example 3:
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj is // created for the value 1.let obj = new Boolean(1);// Here boolean.toString() function is// used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
true
Example 4:
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj is// created for the value -1.let obj = new Boolean(-1);// Here boolean.toString() function is// used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
true
Example 5:
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj is// created for the value 1.2let obj = new Boolean(1.2);// Here boolean.toString() function is// used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
true
Example 6:
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj is created// for the value as string "gfg"let obj = new Boolean("gfg");// Here boolean.toString() function is// used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
true
Example 7:
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj is created// for the value false.let obj = new Boolean(false);// Here boolean.toString() function is// used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
false
Errors and Exceptions: If we try to assign a new boolean with a variable that is not defined or a complex number then an error will be thrown instead of the default true/false value.
Example 1: Here the value as neveropen gives an error because this value is not defined only true and false have been predefined.
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj is created // for the value neveropen.let obj = new Boolean(neveropen);// Here boolean.toString() function is// used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
Error: neveropen is not defined
Example 2: Here complex number can not be taken as the parameter only integer values and strings can be taken as the parameter which is why it returns an error.
javascript
// Here Boolean object obj is created for the// value such as complex number 1+2ilet obj = new Boolean(1 + 2i);// Here boolean.toString() function is // used for the created object obj.console.log(obj.toString()); |
Output:
Error: Invalid or unexpected token
