What is the output of code?
When used with non-boolean operands, the and and or operators have an interesting behavior. They return the last evaluated object instead of a boolean value. 🎯

Here's how it works:

👉 The and operator evaluates the expressions from left to right and returns the last object that evaluated to False or the last object itself if all expressions evaluate to True. It short-circuits the evaluation as soon as it encounters the first False value.

👉 On the other hand, the or operator evaluates the expressions from left to right and returns the first object that evaluated to True or the last object itself if all expressions evaluate to False. Similar to and, it also short-circuits the evaluation as soon as it encounters the first True value.

These behaviors can come in handy in certain scenarios. For example, you can use the and operator to assign a default value to a variable based on conditionals, or you can use the or operator to select the first non-empty object from a list of options.

Keep in mind that this behavior can be powerful, but it can also be tricky if you're not familiar with it. So, always ensure that the operands you use with and and or operators make sense in the context you're using them.

Happy coding! 🚀💻
