    - #### OtpErlangBoolean

          public OtpErlangBoolean​(boolean t)

      Create a boolean from the given value
      Parameters:
        `t` - the boolean value to represent as an atom.

    - #### OtpErlangBoolean

          public OtpErlangBoolean​(OtpInputStream buf)
                           throws OtpErlangDecodeException

      Create a boolean from a stream containing an atom encoded in Erlang external format. The value of the boolean will be true if the atom represented by the stream is "true" without regard to case. For other atom values, the boolean will have the value false.
      Throws:
        `OtpErlangDecodeException` - if the buffer does not contain a valid external representation of an Erlang atom.
