Can I do this in java?
private static boolean isRight(){
return new Random.nextBolean();
}
boolean test = true;
test = test && isRight()
My question is can I use a boolean to update the same boolean like I would if it were an int or double? Is this a good programming practice or there’s a better way
Answer
Yes of course you can. boolean works in the same way as any other primitive type in Java.
Note however that this is an abuse of Random: you should not reinitialise the generator every time you want to draw from it. You could keep it as a static field in the class, taking care to synchronize on its monitor to help achieve thread safety.
Note also that test will remain false once it evaluates to false.
