 Convert a value to a Boolean, using the standard truth testing
! procedure. If \code{x} is false, this returns \code{False};
! otherwise it returns \code{True}. \code{bool} is also a class,
! which is a subclass of \code{int}. Class \code{bool} cannot be
! subclassed further. Its only instances are \code{False} and
! \code{True}.
