Python Booleans
We'll cover the following
Python booleans
Boolean is a fundamental data type in Python. A boolean value can be represented as either True
or False
.
We can set booleans to different variables to represent truthy or falsy values. For instance, let’s say you haven’t yet completed the boolean lesson. In that case, the value of our completed variable will be set to False
.
completed_lesson = Falseprint(completed_lesson)
By the end of this lesson, we can update it to True
.
completed_lesson = Trueprint(completed_lesson)
Boolean variables can be added to depict different kinds of information in a class or object.
person_information = {"name": "X12", "age": 21, "python_developer": True}print(person_information["python_developer"])
The person_information
is a dictionary containing different information on a person, including the name
, age
and whether or not they’re a Python developer python_developer
(i.e., a Boolean value).
Boolean type
Let’s try printing the type of the boolean values.
print(type(True))print(type(False))
