Default what is this?

I find this website very useful, but I would like to know what the "--"
symbol is in some of the formulae that are suggested to readers. I have not
used any formula that contains a "--"...atleast not knowingly...and would
like to know what it's function is.

thanks!

It is commonly used to convert a logical value, like TRUE or FALSE, into a
number
