Logical Operators
| Operator
| Description
|
&&
| The "and" operator performs a logical conjunction of two expressions.
(If both expressions evaluate as True, the result is true. If either expression evaluates to False, the result is false.)
|
||
| The "or" operator performs a logical disjunction on two expressions.
(if either or both expressions evaluate to True, the result is true)
|
!
| It is "not" operator that performs logical negation on an expression.
|
Bitwise Operators

| Assign
|
+=
| Increment then assign
|
-=
| Decrement then assign
|
*=
| Multiply then assign
|
/=
| Divide then assign
|
%=
| Modulus then assign
|
<<=
| Left shift and assign
|
>>=
| Right shift and assign
|
&=
| Bitwise AND assign
|
