🎭 A very simple Python library package which provides a **base class for
falsey objects** - objects that evaluate to ``False`` in boolean contexts.


Installation 📦
===============================================================================

::

    pip install falsifier


Examples 💡
===============================================================================

The ``Falsifier`` class provides a base for creating objects that evaluate to
``False`` in boolean contexts:

>>> from falsifier import Falsifier
>>> obj = Falsifier( )
>>> bool( obj )
False

Identity-based equality ensures each instance is only equal to itself:

>>> obj2 = Falsifier( )
>>> obj == obj2
False
>>> obj == obj
True


Use Cases 🎯
===============================================================================

* 🚩 **Sentinel Objects**: Base class for creating unique sentinel objects that
  evaluate to ``False``.
* 🕳️ **Absence Indicators**: Foundation for creating objects that represent
  absence or invalidity when ``None`` or ``False`` may be valid.
