Python Logical Operators

In real life, almost everyone expresses their thoughts using phrases like "Yes or No", "Definitely Not", "Yes, yes and yes!". Python language permits you to do almost the same, but it uses more formal phrases based on the statements and, or, and not. X and Y can be any logical statement (True or False):

Let's look at the code below to understand the logic of each operator:

12345678910111213
# Example of `and` operator x = True y = False result = x and y print('Result of x and y:', result) # Output: False # Example of `or` operator result = x or y print('Result of x or y:', result) # Output: True # Example of `not` operator result = not x print('Result of not x:', result) # Output: False
