Boolean

A Boolean holds either true or false and is the result of every comparison and logical expression. Booleans drive if statements and pattern match guards throughout Scala. Unlike some languages, Scala never implicitly converts other types to Boolean.

Note: Comparison operators like ==, >, and < always evaluate to a Boolean value.

Example: Boolean

markup

object Main extends App {
  val isActive: Boolean = true
  val isAdmin: Boolean = false
  val isAdult = 20 >= 18

  println(s"$isActive $isAdmin $isAdult")
}
