in js for example if the user pressed the button the condition is true and you do some code for that. else: if he didn't the condition is false and you do other things to handle it.

Hi, A Boolean variable only can take two values: true or false. It is used to save if the process did make some actions like.. bool isUpdated; If (getVersion() != getLatestVersion()) { updateVersion(); isUpdated = true; } The standard value of a Boolean variable is false. *IMPORTANT* In programming values like 0, or something with empty value like "", are taken as nothing, so nothing is the same as false, so if you do that: int num = 0; If (num) { } else { } The compiler will solve the if converting the condition (num) to a Boolean and 0 becomes false, it will execute the else statement. If you change value of num to any value different to 0 (included negatives) the compiler will take it as a True boolean because it has value. Hope it helps you

A boolean variable can ONLY be true or false. Good for conditional testing
