Boolean Expression
A Boolean expression returns a boolean value, which is either 1
(true) or 0
(false).
This is useful for building logic and finding answers.
You can use a comparison operator, such as the greater than (>
) operator, to find out if an expression (or variable) is true or false :
Example
int x = 10; int y = 9; cout << (x > y); // returns 1 (true), because 10 is higher than 9
Or even easier:
Example
cout << (10 > 9); // returns 1 (true), because 10 is higher than 9
In the examples below, we use the equal to (==
) operator to evaluate an expression:
Example
int x = 10;
cout << (x == 10); // returns 1 (true), because the value of x is equal to 10
Example
cout << (10 == 15); // returns 0 (false), because 10 is not equal to 15
