To declare a boolean number in Swift without using ExpressibleByBooleanLiteral, you can use an enum to represent boolean states. This approach allows you to define custom logic and associated values if needed. Here's a simple example:

enum BooleanState {
    case on
    case off
}

var state: BooleanState = .off

// Usage
state = .on

This method leverages Swift's powerful enum capabilities, allowing you to represent boolean-like states without directly using ExpressibleByBooleanLiteral. Enums in Swift can also have associated values, making them versatile for more complex scenarios.

For more information on using enums in Swift, you might find the session Go small with Embedded Swift helpful, where the use of Swift enums is discussed.

A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design

Learn the essential features and design philosophy of the Swift programming language. We’ll explore how to model data, handle errors, use protocols, write concurrent code, and more while building up a Swift package that has a library, an HTTP server, and a command line client. Whether you’re just beginning your Swift journey or have been with us from the start, this talk will help you get the most out of the language.

What’s new in Swift

Join us for an update on Swift. We’ll briefly go through a history of Swift over the past decade, and show you how the community has grown through workgroups, expanded the package ecosystem, and increased platform support. We’ll introduce you to a new language mode that achieves data-race safety by default, and a language subset that lets you run Swift on highly constrained systems. We’ll also explore some language updates including noncopyable types, typed throws, and improved C++ interoperability.
