Help with c# and bool on asp.net mvc

Question

Whats the best way to print out "Yes" or "No" depending on a value

In my view I want to print out

Model.isStudent

and I dont want True or False, I want Yes or No.... do I Have to write if else statement?

Answer 1

Write a helper method:

public static class MyExtensions
{
    public static string FormatBool(this HtmlHelper html, bool value)
    {
        return html.Encode(value ? "Yes" : "No");
    }
}

And use it like this:

<%= Html.FormatBool(Model.IsStudent) %>
