Returns

true if value is non-zero; false if value is zero. [Edit]

Example

The following example demonstrates converting uint values to bool values.

C# Example
using System;
class ConvertBoolTest {
    static public void Main() {
        uint uint0 = 0;
        uint uint1 = 1; 
        bool bool0 = Convert.ToBoolean(uint0);
        bool bool1 = Convert.ToBoolean(uint1);
        Console.WriteLine("(uint) {0} as bool = {1}",uint0,bool0);
        Console.WriteLine("(uint) {0} as bool = {1}",uint1,bool1);
    }
}

The output is

(uint) 0 as bool = False
(uint) 1 as bool = True
