Truthy or Falsy?

A "truthy" value is a value that translates to true when evaluated in a Boolean context. All values are truthy unless they're defined as falsy.

All falsy values are as follows:

  • false
  • nil

Create a function that takes an argument of any data type and returns 1 if it's truthy and 0 if it's falsy.

Examples

is_truthy(0) ➞ 1

is_truthy(false) ➞ 0

is_truthy("") ➞ 1

is_truthy("false") ➞ 1
