Boolean Data Type

Also known as logical operators and are commonly used in conditional statements (if...) or constructing loops (while... for...).

For example, you could join to two comparisons in an ‘if’ statement using ‘and’, like this:

if a >= 0 and a <= 10:

print (“Your number is between 0 and 10”)

else

print (“Out of range - must be between 0 & 10”)

Using the ‘and’ operator would mean both conditions (a >= 0) and (a <= 10) must be true.
