truth value
truth value
Noun
pl: truth values
This term is a technical expression used primarily in formal logic, Boolean algebra, and computer programming. It describes a binary state where a statement is assigned a specific value, most commonly true or false, to determine its validity within a logical system.
In a computational context, truth values are often represented as 1 and 0. Because it is a specialized term of art, it is rarely used in casual conversation; using it in a non-technical setting would sound overly clinical or pedantic.
