import java.lang.*;

public class BooleanDemo {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

      // create a Boolean object b
      Boolean b;

      // assign value to b
      b = new Boolean(true);

      // create a boolean primitive type bool
      boolean bool;

      // assign primitive value of b to bool
      bool = b.booleanValue();

      String str = "Primitive value of Boolean object " + b + " is " + bool;

      // print bool value
