Overview
The logicalAnd method is a static method of the Boolean class in Java. The method computes the logical AND operation on two boolean operands/values. The logical AND operator is represented as && in Java. This method was introduced in Java 8.
AND operation on boolean values
A boolean data type takes two values, i.e., true and false. The result of a logical AND operation between the different combinations of the two boolean data types is as follows:
| First Operand | Second Operand | First Operand && Second Operand |
|---|---|---|
| true | true | true |
| true | false | false |
| false | true | false |
| false | false | false |
Method signature
public static boolean logicalAnd(boolean a, boolean b)
Parameters:
boolean a: first operand
boolean b: second operand
Returns:
This method returns the logical AND of the two operands.
Code
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("true && true = " + Boolean.logicalAnd(true, true));
System.out.println("true && false = " + Boolean.logicalAnd(true, false));
System.out.println("false && true = " + Boolean.logicalAnd(false, true));
System.out.println("false && false = " + Boolean.logicalAnd(false, false));
}
