Logical operators in python

In Python, logical operators are used to perform logical operations on Boolean values (True or False) or expressions that evaluate to Boolean values. Python provides three logical operators: and, or, and not.

1. ‘and’: The and operator returns ‘True ‘ if both operands are ‘True’. Otherwise, it returns ‘False’. It evaluates the second operand only if the first operand is ‘True’.
   
   Here's an example:
   
   
   x = 5

   y = 10

   z = 3

   
   

   result = (x < y) and (z < y)

   print(result)  # Output: True
   In this case, both (x < y) and (z < y) evaluate to True, so the overall result of the and operation is True.
2.  `or`: The `or` operator returns `True` if at least one of the operands is `True`. It returns `False` only if both operands are `False`. It evaluates the second operand only if the first operand is `False`.
   
   Here's an example:
   
   
   x = 5

   y = 10

   z = 3

   
   

   result = (x > y) or (z < y)

   print(result)  # Output: True
   
   In this case, `(x > y)` evaluates to `False`, but `(z < y)` evaluates to `True`, so the overall result of the `or` operation is `True`.
   
   
3. `not`: The `not` operator is a unary operator that negates the Boolean value of its operand. If the operand is `True`, `not` returns `False`, and if the operand is `False`, `not` returns `True`.
   
   Here's an example:
   
   
   x = 5

   y = 10

   z = 3

   
   

   result = (x > y) or (z < y)

   print(result)  # Output: True
   
   In this case, `(x < y)` evaluates to `True`, but the `not` operator negates it to `False`
   
   Logical operators are commonly used in conditional statements, loops, and boolean expressions to control the flow of the program based on certain conditions.
