Python - Logical Operators

<Comparison Operators Bitwise Operators >

The logical operators are used to evaluate the logical values of their operands in the expression. The Logical operators always return the result as a Boolean value(True or False).

There are three types of logical operators which evaluate the expression.

Operators	Meaning	Example
or	If any of the two expressions is true, then it returns true.	>>>(10>2)or(3<2) >>>True >>>(3>5) or(2==2) >>>True
and	If both expression are true, then it returns true	>>>(10>2)or(1<2) >>>True >>>(3>5) or(2==2) >>>False
not	If the expression is true, it returns false. When the expression is false, it returns true.	>>>not(3*4>10) >>>False >>>not(5==7) >>>True

Logical Operators - Example Program

>> a=10
>> b=5
>> c=d=20
>> # shows how to use the(or) operator 
>> (a>b)or(a>c)
True
>> (a>d)or(a>c)
False
>> # shows how to use the (and) operator 
>> (a>b)and(a>c)
False
>> (a>b)and(a<c)
True
>> # shows how to use the (not) operator 
>> not(a>c)
True
>> not(3*4>10)
False
>> not(5==7)
True
