Logical Operators In Python

In this article, we will discuss logical operators in Python.

Logical Operators

In this article, we will discuss the following logical operators

And Operator

This operator returns true if both the conditions associated with the ‘and’ operator are true. Here is the syntax

Condition 1 and condition 2

If both condition 1 and condition 2 are true, then this statement will return true. If both the conditions are false (or any condition is false), then this statement will return false.

Here is an example

age = 19
nationality = "indian"

# If you are above 18 years of age and your nationality is indian then you are eligible to vote.

if age > 18 and nationality == "indian":
        print("You are eligible to vote")

Once you run the application you will get the following output: -

Or Operator

This operator returns true if any of the conditions associated with the ‘or’ operator are true. Here is the syntax: -

Condition 1 or condition 2

Here is an example

isAmazonEmployee = False
isPrimeMembershipHolder  = True

# If you are an amazon employee or have amazon prime membership then you can watch that movie

if isAmazonEmployee ==True or isPrimeMembershipHolder == True:
        print("You are eligible to watch the movie")

Once you run the application you will get the following output: -

Not Operator

Not operator reverses the result of logical operation. It means that if the result of the logical operator is true then the ‘Not’ operator will return false or vice versa.

Here is an example: -
