What does the title even mean? True? for
what? Good? Bad? Useful? If it was False, would we see any meaning?
Even the state of a light bulb cannot be properly represented by booleans. Would
True mean the light is on? or would it mean off?
What if the decision on whether Boolean Blindess is bad or good is represented with a sum type
data Decision
= Bad
| Good
deriving Show
makeDecision :: Decision -> Text
makeDecision decision = case decision of
Bad -> "Boolean blindness is " <> ( show Bad ) <> "!"
Good -> "Boolean blindess is " <> ( show Good ) <> "!"I think using the sum type gives it meaning. Now we can make a decision about Boolean Blindess.
I lessen confusion in my code by using booleans conservatively.
