23 - true and false keywords should map to xsd:boolean values #23

Closed joshsh closed 13 years ago

joshsh commented 13 years ago
In Notation3, the words 'true' and 'false' represent values of the
primitive data type xsd:boolean, whereas in Ripple, they are relational
primitives which consume arguments and produce results (they're identical
to stack:pop and stack:popd).  While this is elegant, it's also a little
confusing, because Ripple's text syntax is based on Notation3.  Let 'true'
and 'false'  be simple values as in Notation3, and leave control flow to
the remaining logic primitives.
