Why does "print(False == (False or True))" return False?

Hi ! I'm doing the Python course on the operators and the booleans. I was specificly learning the operator - precedence. I don't understand why it returns False. In fact, "(True or False)" can be False and match with the "==". So why is it everytime False ? I would be nice to explain me where does my reasonning fail :) Thank you in advance ! Koast

Thanks a lot maxcookmax ! The point i didn't get was that "(False or True)" returns True each time there is a True in the instruction. Koast

Try to run this code i.e, print(False or True) you will get the output : True and then evaluate the expression print(False==True) ultimately the output will be False. Hope you find it helpful. Thank you :-)
