Bool

A boolean represents a true or false value. This is the default 'boolean provider' in VSL. This means that you can use this in if statements and other control flow statements to build logic and complex programs.

A VSL boolean will only take one physical bit however depending on the target it may be 8 or 4-bit aligned. For this reason, you may choose to use a packed struct to store a series of booleans. Booleans are not directly convertable to integers. You can however convert a boolean to an integer using Int(true) or Int(false).

Other languages offer integers and strings to also be considered a falsey value. VSL, instead, only allows a false boolean to be considered false. This has the benefit that you must explicitly specify what you want to check and reduces confusion for someone reading code.
