What is Logical?

Logical operators, && (AND), || (OR), and ! (NOT), combine or invert boolean conditions and are typically used in control flow statements. C uses short-circuit evaluation, meaning && stops evaluating as soon as one operand is false, and || stops as soon as one operand is true. This behavior is often relied on deliberately, for example checking a pointer is not null before dereferencing it in the same condition.
