There's a fairly accepted convention for integer representations. There's no such convention for boolean representations.
then why do you print its value on a screen ?!
Perhaps because if you don't print *something* you can't see it?
since you printed it you poke a convention (of casting to string)
if you can print it on screen why not to print it in string?
Simply for the sake of being able to recognize the value. If it doesn't have some value printed, how do you know what the value is? Although your example would work (from a previous post), I don't see a real world use for such an effort.
There are work arounds that are quite simple.
