Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Hey,I've heard some speculation on the ||/&& operators vs their and/or counterparts and was told the ||/&& sometimes produces an unexpected result because they have lower precedence over and/or, or something to that effect.I commonly use the and/or pair because of this, but using either has never caused me any problems, so I'm not even sure if this is simply pointless concern or if there's any truth to it. I've always suspected it just means that I'd have to insert a few extra parenthesis to group expressions properly with the ||/&& pair. But ultimately, I wanted to hear confirmation about this from someone more certain. Is there any other pitfall to using one or the other?Thanks in advance,-8ball Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/26126-solved-logical-operators-and-precendence/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
