LOGICAL OPERATORS
Logical
operators in C are used to perform logical operations on Boolean values (true
or false). They allow you to combine and manipulate the results of relational
or logical expressions. In C, the logical operators are:
1. Logical
AND (&&): Returns true if both operands are true; otherwise, it returns
false.
Example:
int a = 5;
int b = 7;
int c = 3;
if (a < b && b < c)
{
// This condition is false, so the code
inside the if block will not execute.
}
2. Logical
OR (||): Returns true if at least one of the operands is true; otherwise, it
returns false.
Example:
int a = 5;
int b = 7;
int c = 3;
if (a < b || b < c)
{
// This condition is true, so the code
inside the if block will execute.
}
3. Logical
NOT (!): Returns the opposite of the operand's logical value. If the operand is
true, it returns false; if the operand is false, it returns true.
Example:
int a = 5;
int b = 7;
if (!(a < b))
{
// This condition is false, so the code
inside the if block will not execute.
}
Logical
operators are commonly used to combine multiple conditions in if statements,
while loops, or for loops. They help you make decisions based on complex
logical expressions and control the flow of your program.
