bool(object)

Standard truth testing procedures are applied to values to determine their Boolean value. Statements are True if they do not meet one or more of these criteria:

• If a False boolean value is passed.
• If None is passed.
• If a quantitative zero is passed, such as 0 or 0.0.
• If an empty sequence or mapping is passed, such as (), [], or {}.
• If Objects of Classes having bool() or len() method, returning 0 or False are passed.
