While (0&&0) Question

I had a quiz where while (0&&0) was false and therefore was ignored but why is this so? I tought the && compares both and when they're the same the condition turns to true so if (false==false) its actually true (?) please enlighten me

&& is not a compare statement it's an AND conditional even if you had (1&&0) the while would have been ignored as it need the left predicate as well as the right to be true (p1 && p2 && p3){ // do shtuff } the above statement need ALL 3 predicates to be true in order to do shtuff (p1 == p3){ // do other shtuff } the above statement need p1 to be equal to p3 (both can be false for the other shtuff to happen)

&& and == do not equal the same thing. They are two different ways to compare conditions. && is used to determine Boolean expressions. While == is used to compare two sides as equal. 0 && 0 // False false && false // False 0 == 0 // True 0 == false// Valid Statement 1 == true// Valid Statement Fun Fact: Any number that does not equal 0 is true. 0 is the only number that can represent false. All other number can be considered true. -99 && 67 // True -99 && 0 // False
