Lesson outline
Introduction to Booleans
The bool type in C++ represents logical values and can hold only true or false.
Booleans are essential for decision-making in programs, particularly in conditional statements and loops.
Boolean Usage
Boolean variables are commonly used in conditions to control which block of code executes.
Boolean Conversions
Booleans can be implicitly converted to integers: true becomes 1 and false becomes 0.
Likewise, integer values convert to booleans: 0 becomes false, and any non-zero value becomes true.
