Defined in:

Overview

This cop checks for uses of double negation (!!) to convert something to a boolean value. As this is both cryptic and usually redundant, it should be avoided.

Please, note that when something is a boolean value !!something and !something.nil? are not the same thing. As you’re unlikely to write code that can accept values of any type this is rarely a problem in practice.

Examples:


# bad
!!something

# good
!something.nil?
