# Usage of and, or, not Logical Operators

`Logical operators` are often combined with conditional statements like if, else to **control the flow of a program**.

<br />

## Types of Logical Operators

In Python, you can use the following logical operators:

- `and`: Returns `True` if both values on either side of the operator are true.

- `or`: Returns `True` if at least one of the values on either side of the operator is true.

- `not`: Returns the opposite of the given Boolean value.

```python title="Example of Logical Operators Usage"
is_student = True
has_id = False

# AND operation
print(is_student and has_id)  # False

# OR operation
print(is_student or has_id)   # True

# NOT operation
print(not is_student)         # False
```

The `and` operator returns true only when both conditions are true. For instance, `True and False` returns `False`, while `True and True` returns `True`.

The logical operator `and` returns `True` only when both Boolean values are True.
