  • Creates a negated expression representing the negated result of the given expression.

    If the operand isn’t a boolean type, it gets coerced to a boolean. The number 0 is coerced to false, the number 1 is coerced to true, strings are coerced to false (but strings prefixed with a number are coerced to true, for example 2willowroad@nationaltrust.org.uk).

    Declaration

    Swift

    public static func not(_ expression: ExpressionProtocol) -> ExpressionProtocol

    Parameters

    expression
