Boolean

Boolean involves only the two logical values: TRUE (1) and FALSE (0). Boolean is:

in mathematics, used in boolean algebra.
in computer science, one of datatype, usually primitive datatypes. See Boolean datatype

Both of these forms are named after the English mathematician George Boole (1815-1864), inventor of "the calculus of logic", now called Boolean algebra.
