Create objects of type "logical".

Create or test for objects of type "logical", and the basic logical constants. This function is a wrapper of the function as.logical() and evaluates if the object to be coerced can be interpreted as a boolean. Any object : NA, NA_integer, NA_Date_, (...), 0, 0L, F, FALSE, false, FaLsE, (...), 1, 1L,T, TRUE, true, TrUe, (...), will be converted as NA, FALSE and TRUE. Any other other will return an error.

Arguments
