☜ | Truth-Value Interpretation1984 Version of ANSI Standard | ☞ |
The truth-value interpretation is a mapping from the set of all data values onto the two integer values 0 and 1, described by the following algorithm. Take the numeric interpretation. If the result is not "0", make it "1".
The "truth-value expression" tvexpr is defined to have the same syntax as expr. Its presence in a syntax definition serves to indicate that the truth-value interpretation of its value is to be taken when it is executed.
