Hello I am new to this site and also a student. I am working on an assignment
and was wondering if there is a way to make an alias for a boolean? For
example when I am making a table called club_games and it must contain the
memberID, gameID, count, and status as column fields. When I enter the data
for status I want it to say either "unavailable" for false and "available"
for true. but I don't know how to do that.

you could use an enum, or you could use a case statement on your query, like,

SELECT memberID, gameID, hardwareID, count, case when status then 'available' 
else 'unavailable' end FROM club_Games
