Is there an easy way to convert a simple integer into a boolean type?

use:
  1. boolean b;
  2. int iSomeValue;
  3.  
  4. b=true;
  5. if(iSomeValue==0)b=false;
or use function
  1. boolean intToBool(int iVal)
  2. {
  3. boolean b=true;
  4. if(iVal==0)b=false;
  5. return b;
  6. }

That is a lot more code than is needed. The conversion only needs the evaluation of intVal!=0, so the function reduces to
  1. boolean intToBool(int value){
  2. return (value != 0);
  3. }

Thanks for the help, by th way i used ezzral's method it was quick and simple, i also found out i could've just started with a boolean by setting random generator class to boolean type.
