Boolean data type

In computer science, the Boolean is a data type that has one of two possible values representing the two truth values of logic: true and false. It is named after George Boole, who first defined an algebraic system of logic in the mid-19th century. The Boolean data type is primarily associated with conditional statements, which allow different actions by…
