CODE

public class Chair
{

  public int height;
  public int width;
  public string color;

  public void Fold(int easy);
}


I am trying to create a method that accepts one type of bool.

If the parameter is true, the method displays the word folding, if it is false is, the method displays the word unfolding.

I don't understand how to use my bool. Please help

Display how? Here's an example of what you might be looking for:
CODE

public class Chair {
   public int height;
   public int width;
   public string color;
   private bool isFolding;
   public  Chair() {
      this.SetFolding(true);
   }
   public void SetFolding(bool isFolding) {
      this.isFolding=isFolding;
   }
   public string GetChairName() {
      if (this.isFolding) {
          return "Folding";
      } else {
          return "Unfolding";
      }
   }
}


Hope this helps.

baavgai gave you a creat example of doing this, if that is indeed what you are looking for, in my opinion though there is one change I would make to his code, that would be I would change

CODE

public string GetChairName() {
      if (this.isFolding) {
          return "Folding";
      } else {
          return "Unfolding";
      }
   }


To a ReadOnly property of the Class Object, like this

CODE

public string GetChairName
{
     get
         {
               If(this.Folding)
               {
                    return "Folding";
                }
                 else
                  {
                      return "Unfolding";
                   }
          }
}


But once again this is personal preference, both solutions will work nicely for you're looking for smile.gif

Actually, I would have preferred a property as well. However, "the method displays" description seemed to dictate the design. tongue.gif
