Python True

Python True

Python True is a keyword used to represent the logical/boolean value of true or 1.

Since, True represents one of the two boolean values, which is returned by boolean expressions, or conditions when the expression/condition evaluates to logically true value.

Examples

For example, in the following example, we take a boolean expression 1 == 1, which always evaluates to logical true. We have assigned this expression to variable x, and print the result to standard output.

Python Program

x = 1 == 1
print(x)

Output

True

Assign True to variable

We can assign a value of True to a variable. In the following program, we have assigned the value True to variable x.

Python Program

x = True
print(x)

Output

True

Function returns True

Since, it is a value, we can return True from a function, always or during specific conditions.

Python Program

def alwaysTrue():
    return True

x = alwaysTrue()
print(x)

Output

True
