George Boole George Boole ( ; 2 November 1815 – 8 December 1864) was a largely self-taught English mathematician, philosopher and logician, most of whose short career was spent as the first professor of mathematics at Queen's College, Cork in Ireland. H ...

is considered Boolean. Related to this, "Boolean" may refer to: * Boolean data type, a form of data with only two possible values (usually "true" and "false") * Boolean algebra, a logical calculus of truth values or set membership * Boolean algebra (structure), a set with operations resembling logical ones * Boolean domain, a set consisting of exactly two elements whose interpretations include ''false'' and ''true'' * Boolean circuit, a mathematical model for digital logical circuits. * Boolean expression, an expression in a programming language that produces a Boolean value when evaluated * Boolean function, a function that determines Boolean values or operators * Boolean model (probability theory), a model in stochastic geometry * Boolean network, a certain network consisting of a set of Boolean variables whose state is determined by other variables in the network * Boolean processor, a 1-bit variable computing unit * Boolean ring, a mathematical ring for which ''x''² = ''x'' for every element ''x'' * Boolean satisfiability problem, the problem of determining if there exists an interpretation that satisfies a given Boolean formula *
