Boolean data type

Another data type in Python - is boolean, or logical. It can take only 2 values - True or False or in terms of numbers 1 or 0 respectively. This data type is used when we need to check some logical condition and depends on that continue.

There are next logical operators you can use in comparison:

  • == equal
  • != not equal
  • > greater than
  • < less than
  • >= greater-equal than
  • <= less-equal than

While using these operators you will receive output as a boolean value: True if the condition holds or False otherwise. For example, let's check some expressions

123456
# check if 1 equals True print(1 == True) # check if "abc" equals "aBc" print("abc" == 'aBc') # check if 87*731 greater equal than 98*712 print(87*731 >= 98*712)
copy

Task

Check the following statements and print the respective result

  1. Is 2 not equal to False?
  2. Is 982*37 greater than 354*98?
  3. Is string "abcd" greater than "abc"?

Task

Check the following statements and print the respective result

  1. Is 2 not equal to False?
  2. Is 982*37 greater than 354*98?
  3. Is string "abcd" greater than "abc"?
