Booleans
Unlike many programming languages, SIMPOL includes a true Boolean data type
and in what is becoming typically classic SIMPOL style, it can have four
distinct values, .true
, .false
,
.nul
, and .inf
. An important point to
remember when using expressions in statements such as
while
and if
is that unless the result
of the expression is the boolean value .true
, then it may
very likely be considered to be false.
