Boolean (equivalent to Java's boolean primitive type) is a subtype of scala.AnyVal. Instances of Boolean are not represented by an object in the underlying runtime system.
There is an implicit conversion from scala.Boolean => scala.runtime.RichBoolean which provides useful non-primitive operations.

Abstract methods
Compares two Boolean expressions and returns true if they evaluate to a different value.
Compares two Boolean expressions and returns true if they evaluate to a different value.
a != b returns true if and only if - a is true and b is false or - a is false and b is true.

- Boolean.scala
Compares two Boolean expressions and returns true if both of them evaluate to true.
Compares two Boolean expressions and returns true if both of them evaluate to true.
a & b returns true if and only if - a and b are true.
Attributes
- Note
-
This method evaluates both
aandb, even if the result is already determined after evaluatinga. - Source
- Boolean.scala
Compares two Boolean expressions and returns true if both of them evaluate to true.
Compares two Boolean expressions and returns true if both of them evaluate to true.
a && b returns true if and only if - a and b are true.
Attributes
- Note
-
This method uses 'short-circuit' evaluation and behaves as if it was declared as
def &&(x: => Boolean): Boolean. Ifaevaluates tofalse,falseis returned without evaluatingb. - Source

Compares two Boolean expressions and returns true if they evaluate to the same value.
Compares two Boolean expressions and returns true if they evaluate to the same value.
a == b returns true if and only if - a and b are true or - a and b are false.

Negates a Boolean expression.
Negates a Boolean expression.
- !a results in false if and only if a evaluates to true and - !a results in true if and only if a evaluates to false.
