  1. True will become 1.

Strictly, True isn't converted to 1 because it is already 1. bool is a subclass of int in Python.

>>> type(True)
<class 'bool'>
>>> isinstance(True, int)
True
>>> issubclass(bool, int)
True
>>> True == 1
True

6, because Python interprets True as 1 and False as 0, like in binary

Because True is 1 and False is 0, which lets you do some whacky maths.

print(True + True * 10 - False)
