🎯 Learning Objectives

By the end of this lesson, learners will be able to:

  • Use comparison operators to evaluate conditions

  • Combine multiple conditions using logical operators (and, or, not)

  • Write expressions that return Boolean (True/False) values

  • Understand the role of conditions in control flow (used in next module)

📚 Lesson Content

🔹 What Are Comparison Operators?

Comparison operators compare two values and return either True or False.

Operator Description Example (a = 5, b = 10) Result
== Equal to a == b False
!= Not equal to a != b True
> Greater than a > b False
< Less than a < b True
>= Greater than or equal to a >= 5 True
<= Less than or equal to b <= 10 True

🔸 Examples:

python
a = 5
b = 10

print(a == b) # False
print(a != b) # True
print(a < b) # True
print(b >= 10) # True

These comparisons return Boolean values (True or False), which are crucial for making decisions in programs.

🔹 What Are Logical Operators?

Logical operators are used to combine multiple conditions.

Operator Description Example Result
and True if both conditions true a > 0 and b > 0 True
or True if any condition true a > 0 or b < 0 True
not Reverses result (True ↔ False) not (a == b) True

🔸 Examples:

python
x = 8
y = 3

print(x > 5 and y < 5) # True
print(x < 5 or y == 3) # True
print(not (x == y)) # True

✅ Logical operators are often used in if statements and loop conditions.

💡 Mini Exercise:

Write a Python program that:

  1. Takes a number input from the user.

  2. Checks if the number is greater than 10 and less than 100.

  3. Displays True or False accordingly.

🧠 Concept Recap Table

Expression Evaluates To
10 > 5 True
5 == 5 and 3 < 1 False
not (4 != 4) True
7 <= 7 or 8 > 10 True

📝 Assignment

Create a program that:

  • Takes age as input

  • Checks if the user is between 18 and 60

  • Prints if they are eligible to vote and work
