Note for Michael Turner:

"Boolean" in C happens to be represented by the same type as integers.  This
does not mean that there is no explicit concept of a Boolean data type or
expression.  There is a large set of operators which manipulate Boolean
data; there are concepts in which only Boolean data is permissible as the
value of an expression.  The idea is there; it is simply not made into a
data type with its own declaration syntax.
