F# - Boolean Operators
The following table shows all the Boolean operators supported by F# language. Assume variable A holds true and variable B holds false, then −
| Operator | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| && | Called Boolean AND operator. If both the operands are non-zero, then condition becomes true. | (A && B) is false. |
| || | Called Boolean OR Operator. If any of the two operands is non-zero, then condition becomes true. | (A || B) is true. |
| not | Called Boolean NOT Operator. Use to reverses the logical state of its operand. If a condition is true then Logical NOT operator will make false. | not (A && B) is true. |
Example
let mutable a : bool = true; let mutable b : bool = true; if ( a && b ) then printfn "Line 1 - Condition is true" else printfn "Line 1 - Condition is not true" if ( a || b ) then printfn "Line 2 - Condition is true" else printfn "Line 2 - Condition is not true" (* lets change the value of a *) a <- false if ( a && b ) then printfn "Line 3 - Condition is true" else printfn "Line 3 - Condition is not true" if ( a || b ) then printfn "Line 4 - Condition is true" else printfn "Line 4 - Condition is not true"
When you compile and execute the program, it yields the following output −
Line 1 - Condition is true Line 2 - Condition is true Line 3 - Condition is not true Line 4 - Condition is true
