And && or ||

[zaone]

Hi!
Don't know if this has been asked before, but I'd like to know if there's any difference between 'and' and '&&','or' and '||'.

Thanks!

Nope. They're the same.

and and or were added to the language later, I guess to make it easier for people where & and | symbols are not on the standard keyboard?

Thanks a lot!

not_eq	!=

bitand	&
and_eq	&=
bitor	|
or_eq	|=
xor	^
xor_eq	^=
compl	~

where (...) symbols are not on the standard keyboard?

That is in fact the reason for true, false to exist. (as notebooks don't have numpad)
