Explanation

A boolean is a data type intended to represent the two truth values of logic and Boolean algebra.

In programming and coding, you can create your own boolean variable and set it to true or false by saying “bool (nameOfYourVariable) = true;”

Boolean variables can be named with words and phrases that relate to a true/false conditional statement, such as “is,” “has,” etc.

Example

Here’s an example related to pizza:

bool tastesGood = true;
bool isCheesy = false;
bool hasTomatoes = true;

Booleans are typically used for conditional statements!

if(tastesGood == true)
{
    bool customerSatisfied = true;
}
