Shouldn't have made an example in the if-statement as it is mostly useless there. But triple ! is very common to negate-and-convert a possibly falsy statement (undefined, null, false/true):

const x: boolean | undefined | null = getValue(); const not_x: boolean = !!!y

I added TS type annotation for clarity, although could be inferred if `getValue` is typed accordingly.

I've seen `!!` and I've seen `!`, but what would `!!!` get you here that the other two don't?

negation plus cast to boolean. See this for more info: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21154510/the-use-of-the-...
