    Default How to invert?

    Hello all,
    My names Andrew! I am struggling with a Java problem!

    How do you invert true/false values?
    ie if a = true make a = false?

    Thanks!

    The '!' operator will shift booleans to their opposite value. for example
    if ( !false ) {
     //this will evaluate
}
if ( false ){
     //this will not evaluate
}
boolean a = true;
if ( a ){
     //this will evaluate
}
a = !a;
if ( a ){
    //this will not evaluate
}
