Boolean is just true or false.
A boolean is a value which can either be true or false. A boolean condition is mathematical equation where the result is a boolean (either true or false). Often used in programming.A boolean condition consists of some varibles, and boolean operations that can be carried out using them. Here are some boolean operations. The sybols are those used in Java and C++.> Greater Than. Returns true when the number before > is greater than the number after< Less Than. The opposite of Greater than== Equals. If the values are equal returns trueOR Returns true if the boolean before and/or the boolean after is true&& AND Returns true only if the boolean before AND after the && are true! NOT Inverts/NOT's a boolean. True becomes false. False becomes trueMost programming languages have booleans as a type of variable and if statements as control flow.An if statement uses a boolean to decide whether or not something is run eg.if(someBoolean){// If some boolean is true this peice of code will be run}A an example of a boolean condition could use a less than or greater than symbolif( someNumber > 9000 ) {print( "The number... it's.... OVER 9000!!" );}
Boolean is a type, not an operator and can have the value of either TRUE or FALSE
computer can be a pretty general term but I would say the use of a PC in computer science would be to test Boolean logic before implementation. The science behind computers is nothing more than the study of the electronic use of Boolean logic, binary mathematics and in recent years the idea of human interface along side these.
Exampe of Boolean and usage in the real word Operators Operator = Equal to != ^= Not equal to < Less than Greater than >= Greater than or equal to is null Value is null is not null Value is other than null like Value is an instance of pattern-matching string not like Value is not an instance of pattern-matching string Condition is a Boolean value ("Petar" === "John") //This is false ("Petar" === "Petar") This is true if (condition) { code to be executed if condition is true; }
I believe it was in the 1840's but George Boole the inventor of Boolean Logic lived from1815 - 1864
George Boole, he was a mathematician.
George Boole invented the digital computer logic also known as Boolean logic.
He invented what is now simply known as Boolean logic. It is what is used in modern computers.
All packages. Everything digital is boolean logic.
Boolean Algebra is the study of the algebra of logic whilst Mathematical logic is a way of applying Boolean algebra. Other applications include set theory, digital logic and probability.
AND, OR, and NOT are the basic operators in Boolean Algebra.
An AND gate is a logic gate performing a Boolean logic AND operation.
Logic 0 and logic 1 are the two states in digital (or binary) logic. A binary numbering system has but two numbers: 0 and 1. In contrast, we use a decimal system with 10 numbers: 0 to 9. The area of algebra that addresses binary (2-state) logic is called Boolean. In Boolean a logic 0 may be refered to as 'low', 'off' or 'false'; a logic 1 as 'high', 'on' or 'true'. Boolean logic is the foundation of digital electronics.

Boolean algebra is a mathematical method used to describe the behavior and operation of digital logic. Boolean descriptions and relationships can help us design logic and predict the behavior of more complex digital systems.
