Booleans

Let’s discuss boolean (or logical) data type in more detail. The variable type of bool can take only two values - True (1) or False (0). The boolean can be used when we want to check some logical conditions in our code. For example, you want to know if the variable x is bigger than y to use this information by looking for the difference between them.

For this reason, there are some logical operators you can use in comparison:

Use them in boolean expressions, which return the output as a boolean value: True. If the condition holds or False otherwise.

For example:


              12345
            
int x = 5;
int y = 4;
cout << (x > y) << endl; // will return true, because 5 is higher than 4
cout << (x <= 5) << endl; // will return true, because x is equal to 5
cout << ("hello" == "Hello"); // will return false, because these string aren't the equal

The program returned 1 where the statement was true and 0 where was false.
