Description

Converts a given string Str to a boolean value. If Str equals 'false' or '0', the result will be [false], if the Str is 'true' or a string representing any integer value that does not equal 0, the function returns true. In the event that Str is not a valid boolean value, the function will throw an exception.

Example

  WriteLn(StrToBool('false'));
