ok() const;

== Description

Returns whether or not this `absl::StatusOr<T>` holds a `T` value. This member function is analogous to `absl::Status::ok()` and should be used similarly to check the status of return values.

Example:

StatusOr<Foo> result = DoBigCalculationThatCouldFail(); if (result.ok()) { // Handle result else { // Handle error }

== Return Value

`true` if a value is held, `false` if an error is held.

[NOTE]
====
The return value https://en.cppreference.com/cpp/language/attributes/nodiscard[should not be discarded^].
