Boolean Operators

[ROFL A PIGGY]

I looked on this site and I searched it on google, but I can't find out how to actually use Boolean Operators. I know the symbols, such as ! means not, but I don't know how to make the function work. All I know is stuff like this: (3 != 2) // evaluates to true.

Can anyone tell me how or point me to a page that shows me how? I'm mostly just looking for a simple example, because I can easily see how to do it from examples. It can't be anything complex though, beyond a simple Boolean operator, because I'm not far in programming yet.

Thanks! :)

Here are a few in C++:

== test for equality, (This is not the same as = )
>= Greater than or equal too
<= Less than or equal too
> Greater than
< Less than
!= Not equal too



A couple examples:

int a = 10;
int b = 21;

if(a == b)
{
  cout << "Equal too.\n";
}
else if(a > b)
{
  cout << "A is greater than B\n";
}
else if(a < b)
{
  cout << "A is less than B\n";
}
else if(a <= b)
{
  cout << "A is less than or equal too B\n";
}
else if(a >= b)
{
  cout << "A is greater than or equal to B\n";
}

In this case it the program executes the less than loop (Note the >= and <= statements will never get executed)

In a for statement:

for(int i = 0; i <= 10; ++i)
{
  cout << i << endl;
}

In the for loop i is initialized to 0 and then the loop is executed and i is incremented. Then if i is less than or equal too 10 the loop will execute again.


In Boolean, everything will be true or false.

Ah thanks so much!
