  For me the algorithm is “if(wearing_glasses == True and is_brightly_lit == True): stand; else: sit”.

    Your variables are already booleans, so you can just write:

    if (wearing_glasses and is_brightly_lit)

      Are they though? Maybe they are inputs that haven’t been sanitised but the language has two kinds of equals and is you use the double equals then it tries to coerce it for you. Lol that with would be silly!

      yes but it makes it clearer to do isWearingGlasses == true

        And it doesn’t matter, the compiler/interpreter/etc will convert it to the most efficient implementation regardless of what you the human type. If you’re used to the if [boolean] convention use that, if you’re used to if [boolean] == true use that, it does not matter except to style commissars.
