  /**
   * Create a boolean or convert a string or number to a boolean.
   * In case of a number, `true` is returned for non-zero numbers, and `false` in
   * case of zero.
   * Strings can be `'true'` or `'false'`, or can contain a number.
   * When value is a matrix, all elements will be converted to boolean.
   *
   * Syntax:
   *
   *    math.boolean(x)
   *
   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.boolean(0)     // returns false
   *    math.boolean(1)     // returns true
   *    math.boolean(-3)     // returns true
   *    math.boolean('true')     // returns true
   *    math.boolean('false')     // returns false
   *    math.boolean([1, 0, 1, 1])     // returns [true, false, true, true]
   *
   * See also:
   *
   *    bignumber, complex, index, matrix, string, unit
   *
   * @param {string | number | boolean | Array | Matrix | null} value  A value of any type
   * @return {boolean | Array | Matrix} The boolean value
