Dynamic boolean expression's value

Question

String str = "((true)&((false)|true))";
boolean result = xmethod(str);
xmethod????

Answer 1

public static void xmethod(String expression) {
// put your code here
}quite good, but you have one mistake in it, xmethod should return boolean, so:public static boolean xmethod(String expression) {
   boolean result;
   if (Boolean.valueOf(expression).booleanValue()) {
      result = true;
   } else (
      // put your code here
   return result;
