Boolean answer
bool()
has answer True
or False
. Could it be translated. For my case in French vrai
et faux
?

The booleans True
and False
are Python built-ins.
I doubt there is a way to change how they display.
A workaround is to build a class Bool
to mimic bool
in French:
class Bool(int):
r"""
Booléens francisés.
EXAMPLES:
sage: v = Bool(1)
sage: v
Vrai
sage: bool(v)
True
sage: f = Bool(0)
sage: f
Faux
sage: bool(f)
False
"""
def __init__(self, b):
self.bool = bool(b)
def __repr__(self):
return "Vrai" if self.bool else "Faux"
def __str__(self):
return "Vrai" if self.bool else "Faux"
def __bool__(self):
return self.bool
Note that we make Bool
a subclass of int
to better mimic
Python's bool
class (which itself cannot be subclassed).
Use Bool
instead of bool
in your code and the results
should behave much the same as bool
would, except they
display as Vrai
and Faux
instead of True
and False
.
To go further, you might even decide to call this class bool
instead of Bool
, thus overriding the builtin class bool
,
and then you would not need to change your other code.
I wonder if that might have unexpected side-effects.
To be more cautious, call the class Bool
and then run
bool = Bool
Revert to the usual booleans if needed by running
from builtins import bool
or
import builtins
bool = builtins.bool
If you really like having booleans display in French and don't mind
the unusual setup, you could put the definition of Bool
and the
bool = Bool
in the file ~/.sage/init.sage
so it is run each time
Sage starts (first create that file if it does not already exist).
Other ideas of how to name this class:
FrenchBool
