This is incomplete, but I want to get this up early for review
to make sure it is a useful level of abstraction and discussion

There are several things we can talk about here:

  • Hoare logic
  • Decision trees

Obviously, we need actual code here.

## Boolean

Boolean means True or False. Would it surprise you to find out that the fundamentals of computation are built entirely out of True and False? We often call this concept "binary" -- meaning two choices. You'll often here these two names, "binary" and "boolean" used to describe the same concept.

This adds some playground type stuff for the REPL and sticks it
at the beginning of this section, leaving the larger discussion for
after students have time to play around with the REPL.

Boolean logic is so amazing that I can barely controll my excitement.
I hope to pursuade students to explore the things they learn by
playing in the REPL and trying to answer their own questions by trying
it out.
