Check if object is null

If you use the method below, 

public static implicit operator bool(Object exists){

       return exists == null;

       }

you can then use this code,

if (p2p){

}

instead of this code:

if (p2p == null){

}

Having said all that, this is a horrible idea, breaks C# conventions, and will create creepy bugs later on. So do not use it.

C# and ??

In C#, one can meet the operator made up of two question marks. This is known as the null-coalescing operator, and is used to check if a variable is null.  It works as follows.

myClass classInstance = gameObject.GetComponent("myClass.cs") as myClass;

myClass newVar =   classInstance ??  new myClass ();

The second line simply checks if classInstance is null. If it is, it will return a new instance of new myClass(); Else, it will return the classInstance itself. These lines are equivalent to the following:

myClass  classInstance  = gameObject.GetComponent(" myClass.cs ") as  myClass  ;

myClass newVar =  new  myClass  ();

if ( classInstance   == null)

  {

      newVar = new  myClass  ();

  }

else

  {

      newVar =  classInstance  ;

  }

 The beauty of it is that it is transitive, so one can write var a = b ?? c ?? d ?? e;
