--- title: Comparisons with the && (logical AND) operator --- # Comparisons with the && (logical AND) operator --- ## Problem Explanation ยท _Combine the two if statements into one statement which will return `"Yes"` if `val` is less than or equal to `50` and greater than or equal to `25`. Otherwise, will return `"No"`._ --- ## Hints ### Hint 1 The logical AND (`&&`) operator compares both statements and returns `true` only if both are true or can be converted to true (truthy). ### Hint 2 Remember that this effect can be also achieved by nesting `if` statements. --- ## Solutions
Solution 1 (Click to Show/Hide) ```javascript function testLogicalAnd(val) { // Only change code below this line if (val <= 50 && val >= 25) { return "Yes"; } // Only change code above this line return "No"; } // Change this value to test testLogicalAnd(10); ``` #### Code Explanation The function first evaluates `if` the condition `val <= 50` evaluates to `true` converting `val` to a number if necessary, then does the same with `val >=25` because of the logical AND (`&&`) operator; if both return true, the `return "Yes"` statement is executed. #### Relevant Links - ["Logical operators" - *MDN JavaScript reference*](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Logical_Operators)
