In this case, if you go to:
```
-http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/?short=1
+http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo?short=1
```
or
```
-http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/?short=True
+http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo?short=True
```
or
```
-http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/?short=true
+http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo?short=true
```
or
```
-http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/?short=on
+http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo?short=on
```
or
```
-http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/?short=yes
+http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo?short=yes
```
or any other case variation (uppercase, first letter in uppercase, etc), your function will see the parameter `short` with a `bool` value of `True`. Otherwise as `False`.
