      negative true = negative non-zero = non-zero = true.

      What if it’s an unsigned boolean?

        Common misconception… Unsigned booleans (ubool) are always 16-bits.

        Super true.

      Could also store our bools as floats.

      00111111100000000000000000000000 is true and 10111111100000000000000000000000 is negative true.

      Has the fun twist that true & false is true and true | false is false .

      So all this time true was actually false and false was actually true ?

        Depends on if you are on a big endian or little endian architecture.
