Logical Operators

2. Logical Operators • Operators that can be used to create complex Boolean expressions • and • or • not

3. The and Operator • Takes two Boolean expressions as operands • Creates compound Boolean expression that is true only when both sub expressions are true • Can be used to simplify nested decision structures • Truth table for the and operator

4. The or Operator • Takes two Boolean expressions as operands • Creates compound Boolean expression that is true when either of the sub expressions is true • Can be used to simplify nested decision structures • Truth table for the or operator

5. The notOperator • Takes one Boolean expressions as operand and reverses its logical value • Sometimes it may be necessary to place parentheses around an expression to clarify what you are applying the not operator to • Truth table for the not operator

6. Modified Loan Qualifier Program (and) # Notice the use of andinstead of multiple ifs. # This program determines whether a bank customer qualifies for a loan. MIN_SALARY = 30000.0 # The minimum annual salary MIN_YEARS = 2 # The minimum years on the job salary = float(input('Enter your annual salary: ')) years_on_job = int(input('Enter the number of ' + 'years employed: ')) # Determine whether the customer qualifies. if salary >= MIN_SALARY and years_on_job >= MIN_YEARS: print('You qualify for the loan.') else: print('You do not qualify for the loan’)

7. Modified Loan Qualifier Program (or) • Qualifications for the loan has changed • Someone qualifies for a loan if they earn at least $30,000 or they have worked at their job for at least 2 years

8. Modified Loan Qualifier Program (or) # Notice the use of or # This program determines whether a bank customer qualifies for a loan. MIN_SALARY = 30000.0 # The minimum annual salary MIN_YEARS = 2 # The minimum years on the job salary = float(input('Enter your annual salary: ')) years_on_job = int(input('Enter the number of ' + 'years employed: ')) # Determine whether the customer qualifies. if salary >= MIN_SALARY or years_on_job >= MIN_YEARS: print('You qualify for the loan.') else: print('You do not qualify for the loan’)

9. Checking Numeric Ranges with Logical Operators • To determine whether a numeric value is within a specific range of values, use and • Example: x >= 10 and x <= 20 • To determine whether a numeric value is outside of a specific range of values, use or • Example: x < 10 or x > 20

10. Boolean Variables • Can be assigned to only one of two values, True or False • Represented by bool data type • Commonly used as flags • Signals when some condition exists in a program • Flag set to False condition does not exist • Flag set to True  condition exists

11. Boolean Variable Examples hungry = True door_open = False if sales >= 50000.0: sales_quota_met =True else: sales quota_met = False if sales_quota_met: print(‘you have met your sales quota!’) salary = base_salary + BONUS • Could have also used ‘if sales_quota = True:’

12. Determining the State of the Turtle if turtle.ycor() < 0: turtle.goto(0, 0) if turtle.xcor() > 100 and turtle.xcor() < 200: turtle.goto(0, 0) The turtle.xcor() and turtle.ycor() functions return the turtle's X and Y coordinates Examples of calling these functions in an if statement:

13. Determining Turtle’s Heading if turtle.heading() >= 90 and turtle.heading() <= 270: turtle.setheading(180) The turtle.heading() function returns the turtle's heading. (By default, the heading is returned in degrees.) Example of calling the function in an if statement:

14. Determining If Pen is Down if turtle.isdown(): turtle.penup() if not(turtle.isdown()): turtle.pendown() The turtle.isdown() function returns True if the pen is down, or False otherwise. Example of calling the function in an if statement: Notice in example that there is no == since value returned is Boolean

15. Determining If Turtle Is Visible if turtle.isvisible(): turtle.hideturtle() The turtle.isvisible() function returns True if the turtle is visible, or False otherwise. Example of calling the function in an if statement:

16. Determining Pen and Fill Color if turtle.pencolor() == 'red': turtle.pencolor('blue') if turtle.fillcolor() == 'blue': turtle.fillcolor('white') When you call turtle.pencolor() without passing an argument, the function returns the pen's current color as a string. Example of calling the function in an if statement: When you call turtle.fillcolor() without passing an argument, the function returns the current fill color as a string. Example of calling the function in an if statement:

17. Determining the State of the Turtle if turtle.bgcolor() == 'white': turtle.bgcolor('gray') When you call turtle.bgcolor() without passing an argument, the function returns the current background color as a string. Example of calling the function in an if statement:

18. Determining Pen Size if turtle.pensize() < 3: turtle.pensize(3) When you call turtle.pensize() without passing an argument, the function returns the pen's current size as a string. Example of calling the function in an if statement:

19. Determining Speed of Turtle if turtle.speed() > 0: turtle.speed(0) When you call turtle.speed() without passing an argument, the function returns the current animation speed. Example of calling the function in an if statement:

20. Hit The Target Example Type in an angle to point the turtle to hit the square in the upper right Type in a force from 1 to 10 to reach the square Target is hit when inside the square
