And Operator
Operator used to perform a logical or bitwise And of 2 expressions.
Syntax
result = expr1 And expr2
Parameters
- expr1, expr2
- For logical And, specify a value which returns a Boolean result. For bitwise And, an integer expression.
- result
- For logical And, a Boolean value is returned. For bitwise And, result is an integer.
Description
A logical And is used to combine the results of 2 or more expressions into 1 single Boolean result. The following table indicates the possible combinations.
| expr1 | expr2 | result |
|---|---|---|
| True | True | True |
| True | False | False |
| False | True | False |
| False | False | False |
A bitwise And performs a bitwise comparison of identically positioned bits in two numeric expressions and sets the corresponding bit in result according to the following table:
| If bit in expr1 is | And bit in expr2 is | The result is |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 0 |
| 1 | 0 | 0 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
