the first & operator is a logical boolean operator that returns true if both inputs to the operator are true, whilst, there logical short circuit && terminates (short circuits) on a conditional statement where one of the boolean inputs is false and doesn't bother to evaluate the other input. the first & is primarily used in binary operations like in 0b0001 & 0b1000 = 0b0001
