Details

Summary

The Boolean objet allows to represent a boolean and perform logical operations.

Allow to apply the main logical operations:

  • and()
  • or()
  • not()

Allow to apply logical secondary operations:

  • xor()
  • implication()
  • equivalence()

Allow to convert to other scalar types:

  • asBool()
  • asInteger() when you need 0 or 1
  • asString() for debug representation

*Use case*

The main motivation is $result &= $callback() uses the bitwise operator &
and as such will return 0 or 1 instead of true and false.

With Boolean, $result.and($callback()) will work as expected.

Test Plan

Unit tests provided

Equivalence tables have been checked against the English Wikipedia
article Boolean algebra.
