Logical Operators are used in conditional statements and loops for evaluating a condition with binary values.
All of the binary logical operators combine two boolean values that are true and false to form a result value.
Logical Operators with their description:
| Operator | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| && (logical and) | If both the operands are non-zero, then the condition becomes true. | (X && Y) is false |
| || (logical or) | If any of the two operands are non-zero, then the condition becomes true. | (X || Y) is true |
| ! (logical not) | Use to reverses the logical state of its operand. If a condition is true then Logical NOT operator will make false. | !(X && Y) is true |
Java Program for Logical Operator
public class Logical
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
boolean x = true;
boolean y = false;
System.out.println("&& (logical and) = " + (x&&y));
System.out.println("|| (logical or) = " + (x||y) );
System.out.println("! (logical not) = " + !(x&&y));
}
} Output:
&& (logical and) = false
|| (logical or) = true
! (logical not) = true
