Can someone explain me this question?

Question

a=true;
b=false;
c=true;
System.out.print (! (a && !(b||c)));

Answer 1

The output should be true.

You need to know how && and || operators work to understand it.

The && operator returns true if both of the operands are true. Otherwise returns false.

true && true -> true
true && false -> false
false && true -> false
false && false -> false

The || operator returns true if at least one of the operands is true.

true || true -> true
true || false -> true
false || true -> true
false || false -> false

The ! operator returns true if the operand is false and returns false if the operand is true.

Now lets see the expression.
!(a && !(b || c))
= !(true && !(false || true))
= !(true && !true)
= !(true && false)
= !false
= true

Thanks, got it.

Answer 3

I was a bit confused in false||true.
