could someone tell me what the conditional if (self) means. i understand what self means but i don't understand how you can have a condition with no relational operator. thats like saying if (x) and that doesn't make sense to me. thanks in advance.

  In Java: if(self) means exactly the same as if(self=true())
  
  I guess it's the same in Objective-C

  bool x = TRUE;
  
  if (x) {
  //same thing, different variable
  }
