Logical operators
Logical operators are used to check different conditions and execute the code accordingly. For example, detecting a button interfaced to the Raspberry Pi's GPIO being pressed and executing a specific task as a consequence. Let's discuss the basic logical operators:
- EQUAL: The EQUAL (
==
) operator is used to compare if two values are equal:
>>>3==3 True >>>3==2 False
- NOT EQUAL: The NOT EQUAL (
!=
) operator compares two values and returnsTrue
if they are not equal:
>>>3!=2 True >>>2!=2 False
- GREATER THAN: This operator (
>
) returnsTrue
if one value is greater than the other value:
>>>3>2 True >>>2>3 False
- LESS THAN: This operator compares two values and returns
True
if one value is smaller than the other:
>>>2<3 True >>>3<2 False
- GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO (>=): This operator...
