The Python Boolean type is one of Python's built-in data types. It's used to represent the truth value of an expression. For example, the expression 1 <= 2 is True , while the expression 0 == 1 is False .
>>> type(True)
<class 'bool'>
>>> type(true)

# all of the below evaluate to False. Everything else will evaluate to True in Python.

b = False
if b == True:
print("b is true")
if b:
print("b is true") # this is the shorthand of the above IF statement
if b == False:
print("b is false") # again dont forget True and False are case sensitive
# Booleans are simply just True and False
# Example: The "true" below is considerd as a bool.
x = True
print(x) # << This will print "True" because we have set x
# to True. If we change the value of x to False, it would print false.
# Keep in mind the the T in True and the F in False ALWAYS have to be capital.
# Or else it won't work.
#In programming you often need to know if an expression is True or False.
#as you can see below
