- - ### Method Detail

    - #### public Boolean and(Boolean right)

      Logical conjunction of two boolean operators.

      Parameters:
        `right` - right operator
      Returns:
        result of logical conjunction
      Since:
        1.0

    - #### public boolean asBoolean()

      Coerce a Boolean instance to a boolean value.

           // you can omit ".asBoolean()"
           assert Boolean.TRUE.asBoolean()
           assert !Boolean.FALSE.asBoolean()

      Since:
        1.7.0

    - #### public Boolean implies(Boolean right)

      Logical implication of two boolean operands.

      Since:
        1.8.3

    - #### public Boolean or(Boolean right)

      Logical disjunction of two boolean operators

      Parameters:
        `right` - right operator
      Returns:
        result of logical disjunction
      Since:
        1.0

    - #### public Boolean toBoolean()

      Identity conversion which returns Boolean.TRUE for a true Boolean and Boolean.FALSE for a false Boolean.

      Returns:
        the original Boolean
      Since:
        1.7.6

    - #### public Boolean xor(Boolean right)

      Exclusive disjunction of two boolean operators

      Parameters:
        `right` - right operator
      Returns:
        result of exclusive disjunction
      Since:
        1.0
