<h2>Syntax</h2>
<dl>
<dt> t</dt>
</dl>
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>The T system constant is built into XLISP. T represents 'true',
as oppossed to <nobr><a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> ,</nobr>
representing 'false'.</p>
<h2>Examples</h2>
<pre class="example">
(setq myvar T) <font color="#008844">; set MYVAR to True</font>
(setq myvar 'T) <font color="#008844">; T and 'T both evaluate to T</font>
(if t (print "this will print") <font color="#008844">; if, then, else</font>
(print "this won't print"))
</pre>
<p><b>Note:</b> Be careful with the T value. It is possible to do a
<a href="setq.htm">setq</a> on T and set it to other values like
<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a>. Some operations will still return
proper T or <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> values, but the system
will be in a bad state.</p>
