PHP and Keyword

Return true if both statements are true:

<?php
if (5 > 3 and 5 < 10) {
echo "true";
} else {
echo "false";
}
?>

Definition and Usage

The and keyword is a logical operator.

Logical operators are used to combine conditional statements.

The return value will only be true if both statements return true, otherwise it will return false.

Tip: The difference between and and && is that and has very low precedence, meaning that most other operations get evaluated first.
