233B if you use 1 for true and 0 for false. 32B by abusing predefined true/false values even further. – None – 2019-08-26T13:36:19.400
@MafujShikder Specific-language competitions are highly discouraged unless in very specific cases and this is not one of those cases. – MilkyWay90 – 2019-08-26T16:20:51.000

Welcome to CGCC. This site hosts recreational programming challenges, based on an objective winning criterion. (Here, you picked
– Arnauld – 2019-08-26T13:37:32.753code-golf: the shortest answer wins.) It is not designed to get any practical implementation or theoretical answer. So, is it really supposed to be a challenge?
