Chapter 5, Problem 1PS

Explanation of Solution

Given: Logical data.

To find: Whether the data that can be interpreted is called the logical data is true or not.

Solution:

In programming languages, a logical data is also known as Boolean data type. This data type takes only two values, 1 and 0. Any condition or statement returns the value 1 if it is true and 0 if it is false. For example,

a = 1;

b = 2;

A relational expression, a > b, will return 0 because this expression is false.

Thus, it is true that the data that can be interpreted is called the logical data.
