    I set all 8 bits to 1 because I want it to be really true.

      01111111 = true

      11111111 = negative true = false

        Could also store our bools as floats.

        00111111100000000000000000000000 is true and 10111111100000000000000000000000 is negative true.

        Has the fun twist that true & false is true and true | false is false .

          Depends on if you are on a big endian or little endian architecture.
