Boolean variable becomes an int

Projects Programming

I am reading a digitalpin into a boolean value and then I not it and it becomes an integer value.

boolean sensorValue = digitalRead(2);  // returns 0 or 1
sensorValue =~ sensorValue; // Not operation and value becomes 255 or 254

I was hoping it would inverse the values, 0 would become 1 and 1 would become 0

Woops, I was doing a bitwise

sensorValue =! sensorValue;

Totally works.

Thanks AWOL

LOL Wildbill, I guess it could only be outed by a null response.

I nearly wrote

!, !~

But I thought that too obscure.

The "!!" operation is useful for converting to a boolean.

LOL, and in the best tradition of the C language, short, concise, and very obscure.
