bool?is a nullable value type[^]. Null conditional operators[^] are something completely different. :)

Given genders are hard to keep up with these days I use google's api to retrieve an up-to-date list rather than storing my own
public class Gender
{
public string Key { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
public string PronounSubset { get; set; }
}HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://genders.googleapis.com/genders/api/json?key=API\_KEY");
request.Method = "GET";
request.ContentType = "application/json";
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
using (var reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
string data = reader.ReadToEnd();JavaScriptSerializer s = new JavaScriptSerializer(); var genders = s.Deserialize\>(data); foreach(var gender in genders) { System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("{0} {1} ({2})", gender.Key, gender.Description, gender.PronounSubset); }}

I thought, "This looks handy. Let me try it." I have my own API_KEY so I set up in the call but couldn't make it work to genders.googleapis.com - I got a 404 error. Any ideas?

I just love it, when a fun post turns out to be a productive one. I'm just discovering this "null-conditional Operators" :laugh: I'm a bit outdated, may be C# 4.0, that's when I became a manager. lol happy to take away these cool tips :beer: Thanks Marc!

YW! Richard beat me to it, but my favorites are continuation and coalescing operators, so you can write stuff like this (not that you'd want to, mind you, at least without really thinking about whether your data model is really right, but really handy when you need it!):
int? n;
string ns = n?.ToString() ?? "0"; // oops, forgot the quotes in the original post.Latest Article - A Concise Overview of Threads Learning to code with python is like learning to swim with those little arm floaties.

He was probably joking. The Android SDK defines it as female, male, or other. See [Person.Gender | Google APIs for Android | Google Developers](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/plus/model/people/Person.Gender)
