=head1 NAME

Venus::Boolean - Boolean Class

=cut

=head1 ABSTRACT

Boolean Class for Perl 5

=cut

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  package main;

  use Venus::Boolean;

  my $boolean = Venus::Boolean->new;

  # $boolean->negate;

=cut

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This package provides a representation for boolean values.

=cut

=head1 INHERITS

This package inherits behaviors from:

L

=cut

=head1 METHODS

This package provides the following methods:

=cut

=head2 cast

  cast(string $kind) (object | undef)

The cast method converts L<"value"|Venus::Kind::Value> objects between
different I<"value"> object types, based on the name of the type provided. This
method will return C if the invocant is not a L.
