If C doesn’t have Boolean values, what is the alternative in situations that would normally require one?

Standard C (since C99) provides a boolean type, called _Bool . By including the header stdbool.h , one can use the more intuitive name bool and the constants true and false . ... Objective-C also has a separate Boolean data type BOOL , with possible values being YES or NO , equivalents of true and false respectively. Initial implementations of the language C(1972) provided no Boolean type, and to this day Boolean values are commonly represented by integers ( int s) in C programs. The comparison operators ( > , == , etc.) are defined to return a signed integer ( int ) result, either 0 (for false) or 1 (for true).

On one project, I've worked it was: #define TRUE 1 #define FALSE 0

Though C doesn’t support Boolean value. But we can use Logical Operators like ‘&&’, ‘||’ or ‘!’. We can do several logical program with these. If any one need some Fuzzy Logic boolean values, it can be modified by define preprocessors shaldem mention before..
