It is not allowed to cast to a bool. Erroneous code example: ```compile_fail,E0054 let x = 5; // Not allowed, won't compile let x_is_nonzero = x as bool; ``` If you are trying to cast a numeric type to a bool, you can compare it with zero instead: ``` let x = 5; // Ok let x_is_nonzero = x != 0; ```
