@ifl in c actually 0 is false and anything else is true generally a boolean is true if its value is 1 and false if its value is 0. Also your && or || operators will return 0 or 1 depending on the result if it's true or not Just made a small code to show: https://code.sololearn.com/c7y8sE0bktk0/?ref=app

@Aaron ... duh! Yes correct I meant non zero values are true. Changed my sentence mid way and did not check before posting. Thanks for the correction

the last line prints i and j which stay unchanged . so -1 and 1. in C, non zero values are true, so k is zero and l is 1 (edited to correct typo)

in : k=!5&&j !5 is false and then j is true false && true is false So as an integer, k is then 0
