Well, the whole thing could be reduced to
bool isOffset = reader["foo"].ToString().ToUpper().Trim() == "BAR";
Why couldn't the programmer see that? Why didn't someone in the 2+ years that this code has been in production fix it? Marc

I guess it can if reader["foo"] can never return null.

So, just for my own understanding then, something like this would be better then correct? ...
bool isOffset = (reader["foo"]?.ToString().ToUpper().Trim() == "BAR") ?? false;

I have always predicted that this type would show up on the scene sooner or later and, by now, have seen them in action often enough. They actually do as they were told and avoided memory management at all cost. That is why they have no understanding what value types and reference types are all about, nor do they have any idea how value types are an illusion created by the compiler to spare us having to wrestle with references and check for null for every variable. To them these things make no sense and appear to be some random and arcane rules which have been inherited from languages of the past. The same goes for logical operators. I have given up on trying to help the kids when they can't get it done. They think that's more of this arcane ancient stuff that nobody needs to know anymore. Letting them figure it out themselves is the only way to convince them otherwise. So be it.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.
