Python - Booleans

Booleans in Python: Unveiling Truths

In Python, Booleans are a fundamental data type representing truth values, either True or False. Booleans play a crucial role in control flow, decision-making, and logical operations within your programs. Let's explore the key aspects of Booleans in Python :

1. Literal Values :

   - Booleans have two literal values: True and False.

# Example
a = True
b = False

2. Comparison Operators :

   - Booleans often result from comparisons using operators like ==, !=, <, >, <=, and >=.

# Example
result = 5 > 3     # This evaluates to True

3. Logical Operators :

   - Logical operators such as and, or, and not manipulate Booleans in compound expressions.

# Example
expression = (x > 0) and (y < 10 )     # True if both conditions are true

4. Truthy and Falsy Values :

   - Certain values are treated as True or False in Boolean contexts. For example, 0 and an empty string ('') are considered False.

# Example
value = 0 
is_true = bool(value)    # This evaluates to False

5. Boolean Functions :
  

- Built-in functions like bool() can explicitly convert values to Booleans.

# Example
result = bool(42)    # This evaluates to True
