x=10
y=bool(x)
print(y) # True x='12'
y=bool(x)
print(y) # Truex='' # empty string
y=bool(x)
print(y) # False x=0
y=bool(x)
print(y) # Falsex=1
y=bool(x)
print(y) # Truex=[] # empty list
y=bool(x)
print(y) # Falsex=() # empty tuple
y=bool(x)
print(y) # Falsex={} # empty set
y=bool(x)
print(y) # Falsex=None
y=bool(x)
print(y) # False Bool data type
We can use type() to know more about boolean data type.x=4
y=bool(x)
print(type(y)) # <class 'bool'>bool() will return False for following inputs
empty string
empty list
any empty iterable object
