t.

The boolean representing true, and the canonical generalized boolean representing true. Although any object other than nil is considered true, t is generally used when there is no special reason to prefer one such object over another.

The symbol t is also sometimes used for other purposes as well. For example, as the name of a class, as a designator (e.g., a stream designator) or as a special symbol for some syntactic reason (e.g., in case and typecase to label the otherwise-clause).

 t → T 
 (eq t 't) → true 
 (find-class 't) → #<CLASS T 610703333> 
 (case 'a (a 1) (t 2)) → 1 
 (case 'b (a 1) (t 2)) → 2 
 (prin1 'hello t) 
⊳ HELLO 
→ HELLO
