Neither in Python, “True” and “False” are reserved keywords. They are just two predefined variables, whose value can change during runtime, or new classes can be defined with their names, etc.

“true” and “false” are not reserved words in PHP. They are globally-defined constants according to PHP.net.

Obviously, but that’s still kinda weird that it allows me to declare such a class, don’t you think?

the one you created, as get_class( false ) does not return “false”

and $c = New false(); would be a fatal error if you did not
declare your own false class
