4.76 Boolean type and <stdbool.h> in C99
C99 introduces the native type _Bool.
The associated standard header
<stdbool.h> introduces the macros
bool, true and false for Boolean tests.
For example:#include <stdbool.h>
bool foo(FILE *str)
{
bool err = false;
...
if (!fflush(str))
{
err = true;
}
...
return err;
}
Note
The C99 semantics for bool are intended to match those of C++.
