"boolean", as it appears here in C, defines the data type for the value
returned from the function. We don't have to do this in Euphoria, so that's
probably why it threw you.
If I recall my C class correctly, this is how C knows the format of the data
it's passing back from the function. Either that, or it helps the compiler
convert data from one type to another if the receiving variable is a
different type (or class, or whatever). As this is all from memory, I may be
somewhat wrong. But I think that's the gist of it.
Hope this helps,
