I'm looking at a piece of code and it contains a return statement: Return(ret==0) It's written in C++, but for the life of me I can't remember ever seeing a return statement that looks like this. Does it mean "Return ret if ret is equal to 0"? -Pickle Edit: Just found the answer...thanks, and sorry...I should have looked a little bit harder before posting :(

No, == returns a boolean. So it will return true if ret == 0 and false otherwise.

If the value of ret is 0 then the return value is true. Otherwise the return value is false.
