Boolean Data Type
In this chapter, we'll dive into the Boolean
data type. Booleans are simple yet powerful, they allow us to handle True
or False
values, enabling our programs to react to different situations effectively. In the context of managing a grocery store, Booleans can help us determine whether certain conditions are met, such as whether an item is in stock or if a sale is active.
Watch as Alex uses Boolean
data types to compare prices and names:
Understanding Boolean Data Types
A boolean data type has only two possible values: True
and False
. These values are often the result of comparison operations and are fundamental in controlling the flow of our programs. By understanding booleans, you'll be able to write code that can make decisions based on various conditions.
The following operations are common comparison operators that result in boolean values:
- Equal to:
==
; - Not equal to:
!=
; - Greater than:
>
; - Less than:
<
; - Greater than or equal to:
>=
; - Less than or equal to:
<=
.
Example Application
Let's check if an item (milk
) is low in stock by comparing its quantity to a predefined threshold for low stock:
# Define the quantity of the item and the low stock threshold milk_quantity = 12 low_stock_threshold = 10 # Check if the item quantity is below the low stock threshold low_stock = milk_quantity <= low_stock_threshold # Print the result print("Is the item low in stock?", low_stock)
Now it's your turn to practice using booleans. In this challenge, you will check if the total cost of a purchase is eligible for a discount.
Tarea
Define a variable for the total cost of a grocery bill and assign it the value 25.00
. Create a boolean variable that checks if the total cost is greater than or equal to 20.00
to determine discount eligibility. Print the value of your discount eligibility variable.
- Define a variable to hold the total cost of a grocery bill, which is given as
25.00
. - Create the boolean variable
discountEligible
by comparing your total cost variable to the discount threshold of20.00
using the appropriate comparison operator. If the total cost is greater than or equal to the discount threshold, the purchase is eligible for a discount. - Print whether the purchase is eligible for a discount (
True
orFalse
).
