    Well if it's not implicitly convertible, then convert it explicitly! And BTW, your "question" is very badly phrased. – goodvibration Oct 10 '18 at 6:51
  • To avoid some type of errors that are hard to debug Solidity forbid implicit conversion. And some like bool <-> uint256 are not possible at all. It is better if you explictely check for __allowances[_owner][msg.sender] > 0. – Ismael Oct 10 '18 at 21:08

The "if statement" returns a bool condition,(being true or false), and likely should have a comparison going on..

In your case there is no comparison (> == etc) going on, and just returning a number.
