NAME
     std::unique_ptr::operatorbool - std::unique_ptr::operatorbool

Synopsis
	explicit operator bool() const noexcept;  (since C++11)
						  (constexpr since C++23)

	Checks whether *this owns an object, i.e. whether get() != nullptr.

Parameters

Return value

      #include <iostream>
      #include <memory>

      int main()
      {
	  std::unique_ptr<int> ptr(new int(42));

	  if (ptr)
	      std::cout << "before reset, ptr is: " << *ptr << '\n';
	  ptr.reset();
	  ptr ? (std::cout << "after reset, ptr is: " << *ptr)
	      : (std::cout << "after reset ptr is empty") << '\n';
      }
