How to usetoString() in Typescript

The toString() method is available on primitive values, including booleans. It converts the boolean to its string representation.

Example: In this example, the toString() method is called on myBool, returning a string representation of the boolean value.

Javascript
const myBool: boolean = true;
const boolAsString: string = myBool.toString();
console.log(boolAsString); // Outputs 'true' or 'false'

Output:

true

How to Convert a Bool to String Value in TypeScript ?

When we talk about converting a boolean to a string value in TypeScript, we mean changing the data type of a variable from a boolean (true or false) to a string (a sequence of characters). To convert a bool to a string value in TypeScript we have multiple approaches.

Example: let’s say you have a variable isLogged that represents whether a user is logged in or not:

const isLogged: boolean = true;

If you need to use this boolean value as a string, you can convert it to a string representation using various methods, as discussed earlier. The result would be a new variable with a string data type:

const isLogged: boolean = true;
const isLoggedAsString: string = isLogged.toString();

Now, isLoggedAsString holds the string representation of the boolean value true as “true”. This can be useful when you need to concatenate it with other strings, display it in a user interface, or pass it to functions or APIs that expect string values.

Below are the approaches used to Convert a bool to a string value in TypeScript:
