Logical Operators

Logical operators are used to combine tests. Instead of embedded or multiple statements, one if statement could handle it all .

For most languages except Python:

	Operator	Example(s)
and (all tests are true)	&&	if (x > 1 && x < 5) { ... }
or (at least one test is true)	||	if (num == 3 || num == 6) { ... }
not (runs if the variable is false)	!	if (!lightOn) { ... }

Python:

These examples have not been tested.

	Operator	Example(s)
and (all tests are true)	and	if x > 1 and x < 5: ...
or (at least one test is true)	or	if num == 3 or num == 6: ...
not (runs if the variable is false)	not	if not lightOn: ...
