π― Homework Assignment: Boolean Logic Challenge
π What Youβll Do:
Complete an interactive quiz that tests your understanding of boolean concepts from our lesson. First, review the key concepts below to prepare for success!
π‘ Learning Goal: Understand boolean data types and master logical operations!
π Essential Boolean Concepts
Master these fundamentals to ace your quiz!
π’ What is a Boolean?
A boolean is a data type with only two possible values:
- β True
- β False
π― Why Use Booleans?
Booleans help programs make smart decisions based on conditions.
Common Uses:
- β Check if number is positive
- π Verify if file exists
- π Control program flow
π« Types of Boolean Operations
π Direct Assignment
is_sunny = True
π Comparisons
is_adult = age >= 18
β‘ Boolean Operators
The three powerful logical operators!
π€ AND
True only if both are True
True AND True = True
True AND False = False
π OR
True if at least one is True
True OR False = True
False OR False = False
π NOT
Flips True to False and vice versa
NOT True = False
NOT False = True
Things you may need to know:
- The statement is about the number of possible values a Boolean data type can have. Consider the core definition of βBooleanβ.
- focuses on the effect of a specific operator on search results. You should recall which operator is used to narrow a search by requiring all keywords to be present, versus the one that broadens a search to include multiple options.
- the simplest Boolean operator, which is used to reverse a value. Think about what happens when you βflipβ the value of True.
-
evaluate an expression using one of the primary operators. Consider the fundamental rule for many operator: Does it require both conditions to be true, or just one?
- You need to choose the operator that ensures your search results contain both keywords.
- you want to find results that include either of the keywords (or both). Select the operator that provides this inclusive result.
- you are trying to find results for one topic but remove any results that contain a specific, unwanted term. Choose the operator that eliminates a term from your search.
