These kinds of options can be either true or false. False means 'skip this file' because it fails to meet the other options requirements like age, file type... true means it doesn't change any other true/false evaluation that might have occurred on the file and if it is the only option it will always print.

NAME
boolean - Boolean support for Perl
SYNOPSIS
use boolean;
do &always if true;
do &never if false;
do &maybe if boolean($value)->isTrue;
and:
use boolean ':all';
$guess = int(rand(2)) % 2 ? true : false;
do &something if isTrue($guess);
do &something_else if isFalse($guess);
and:
use boolean -truth;
die unless ref(42 == 42) eq 'boolean';
die unless ("foo" =~ /bar/) eq '0';
DESCRIPTION
Most programming languages have a native "Boolean" data type. Perl does not.
Perl has a simple and well known Truth System. The following scalar values are false:
$false1 = undef;
$false2 = 0;
$false3 = 0.0;
$false4 = '';
$false5 = '0';
Every other scalar value is true.
This module provides basic Boolean support, by defining two special objects: "true" and "false".
RATIONALE
When sharing data between programming languages, it is important to support the same group of basic types. In Perlish programming
languages, these types include: Hash, Array, String, Number, Null and Boolean. Perl lacks native Boolean support.
Data interchange modules like YAML and JSON can now "use boolean" to encode/decode/roundtrip Boolean values.
FUNCTIONS
This module defines the following functions:
true
This function returns a scalar value which will evaluate to true. The value is a singleton object, meaning there is only one "true"
value in a Perl process at any time. You can check to see whether the value is the "true" object with the isTrue function described
below.
false
This function returns a scalar value which will evaluate to false. The value is a singleton object, meaning there is only one "false"
value in a Perl process at any time. You can check to see whether the value is the "false" object with the isFalse function described
below.
boolean($scalar)
Casts the scalar value to a boolean value. If $scalar is true, it returns "boolean::true", otherwise it returns "boolean::false".
isTrue($scalar)
Returns "boolean::true" if the scalar passed to it is the "boolean::true" object. Returns "boolean::false" otherwise.
isFalse($scalar)
Returns "boolean::true" if the scalar passed to it is the "boolean::false" object. Returns "boolean::false" otherwise.
isBoolean($scalar)
Returns "boolean::true" if the scalar passed to it is the "boolean::true" or "boolean::false" object. Returns "boolean::false"
otherwise.
METHODS
Since true and false return objects, you can call methods on them.
$boolean->isTrue
Same as isTrue($boolean).
$boolean->isFalse
Same as isFalse($boolean).
USE OPTIONS
By default this module exports the "true", "false" and "boolean" functions.
The module also defines these export tags:
:all
Exports "true", "false", "boolean", "isTrue", "isFalse", "isBoolean"
-truth
You can specify the "-truth" option to override truth operators to return "boolean" values.
use boolean -truth;
print ref("hello" eq "world"), "
";
Prints:
boolean
"-truth" can be used with the other import options.
