% If the first element on the stack is A then this function

% So now the first 3 elements of the stack are
%     { #1 } { #0 } A
% The first 3 are popped and subjected to 'if':
% If A > 0 then { #0 } is executed, else { #1 } is executed:
%     if A > 0
%     then 0
%     else 1
% So consider integers as logicals, where 1 = true and 0 = false,
% then this does
%     (if A then false else true)
% which is a logical 'not'.
