Simplify Boolean statements (Java)

I am trying to simplify the following boolean expressions. However, I can't figure them out. I would like to know how to get to the answer. Where b is a boolean andnis anint`

A. if (n==0) {b=true;} else {b=false;} // is it  b=!n; ????
B. if (n==0) {b=false;} else {b=true;}
C. b = false; if (n>1) {if (n<2) {b=true;}}
D. if (n<1) {b=true;} else {b=n>2;}

I also tried to simplify the expressions; is this correct?

b==true      // b
b==false     // !b
b!=true      // !b
b!=false     // b

Any hint or help is appreciated.

A.

if (n==0) {b=true;} else {b=false;}

b = (n == 0);

B.

if (n==0) {b=false;} else {b=true;}

b = (n != 0);

C. 

b = false; if (n>1) {if (n<2) {b=true;}}

b = false; // No int is > 1 and < 2.

D. 

if (n<1) {b=true;} else {b=n>2;}

b = n < 1 || n > 2;
