If not false

[Charlie_Jefferson]

Hai,

There was a thing that would be used in if statements, like

If blah blah =/ false(isn't false) then do blah blah, but I'm not sure how it was. I'm pretty sure it wasn't =/. It's the opposite of ==.

opposite of == is ~=.

opposite of false is true.

you can also do:

if someVariable then 
  -- do some stuff if someVariable has any value except false or nil 
end
