CHAPTER 40 — Boolean Expressions and
Short-circuit Operators
A boolean value (a true/false value) picks the branch
of an if statement or allows a loop to continue.
Sometimes the boolean expression is more complicated
than we have seen so far in these notes.
Often a program must make a decision based on a number of factors.
This chapter will examine this topic and discuss some additional boolean
operators.
Chapter Topics:
- Short-circuit
&&and||operators. - Non-short-circuit
&and|operators. - Expressions made with several
&&operators. - Expressions made with several
||operators. - Expressions made with mixed
&&and&&operators. - precedence of
&&and||operators.
