Hello, tutors. I'm someone who used to programme as a hobby and who is trying to get back into it via Python. I'm reading Programming in Python 3 by Summerfield (excellent book).
I read something unusual about Boolean operations in Python: >>> five = 5 >>> two = 2 >>> zero = 0 >>> five and two 2 I understand what it's doing here: returning the operand. But what is the practical application of that? How might I use that function? (Short-sighted imagination, I realise.) (I know how binary Booleans work etc., so this is a bit of a change of outlook.) Please pardon me if this is a silly or inane question.
