     `TRUE' and `FALSE' are part of the R language, where
     `T' and `F' are global variables set to these.  All
     four are `logical(1)' vectors.

     `logical' creates a logical vector of the specified
     length.  Each element of the vector is equal to
     `FALSE'.

     `as.logical' attempts to coerce its argument to be of
     logical type.  For `factor's, this uses the `levels'
     (labels) and not the `codes'.

     `is.logical' returns `TRUE' or `FALSE' depending on
     whether its argument is of logical type or not.
