C++: Can you return values of 0 or 1 as false and true in boolean functions? -

this question has answer here:

• when c++ return true / false if data type integer or double value 2 answers

can c++ bool functions return 0 false , 1 true so:

bool foo() {     return 1; }  bool foobar = foo(); 

?

yes, because 0 implicitly converted false , 1 (or other nonzero value) implicitly converted true.

not legal idea, however.
