I saw one example

int x = 10;
int y = 5;

bool isGreater = x > y;

printf("%d", isGreater);

But I could write this

int x = 10;
int y = 5;

printf("%d", x > y);

I am a complete beginner and I have no real reason why I would or would not want to deal with boolean variables, but I want to understand their raison d’être.

Edit: typo city

    Thank you for the explanation! Perhaps at my novice level, I should just go with it and learn the use of bool as I experience it. :)
