Nope, no Boolean. And no date formatting either. Those are a

Can a UDF return a Boolean value? <<SNIP>>



FWiW: Some limited date formatting [ISO, USA, EUR, JIS, LOCAL] is available from the CHAR and VARCHAR scalars. Also effectively [the date would need to be cast as TIMESTAMP] even more capabilities in date formatting should be available using the VARCHAR_FORMAT [aka TO_CHAR] scalar.
