Question

I just want to flip a boolean based on what it already is. If it’s true – make it false. If it’s false – make it true.

Here is my code excerpt:

switch(wParam) {  case VK_F11:   if (flipVal == true) {      flipVal = false;   } else {     flipVal = true;   } break;  case VK_F12:   if (otherVal == true) {      otherValVal = false;   } else {     otherVal = true;   } break;  default: break; } 

Answer 1

You can flip a value like so:

myVal = !myVal; 

so your code would shorten down to:

switch(wParam) {     case VK_F11:     flipVal = !flipVal;     break;      case VK_F12:     otherVal = !otherVal;     break;      default:     break; }
