Most dialects of BASIC didn't have booleans.
Everything old is new again.
- SAI_Peregrinus 1y agoAnd most assembly languages don't have general-purpose booleans. And C89 doesn't have booleans. And FORTHs don't have booleans in the base interpreter, those are words defined like any other.
- NetMageSCW 1y agoMost BASIC dialects map booleans to integers with zero is false, non-zero is true and -1 is the canonical true result of boolean operators, so I think they effectively have booleans.
