bool()
bool() is a function which takes in a parameter and evaluates it to either True or False.
print(f"Integer 0 is evaluated to: {bool(0)}") print(f"An empty character '' is evaluated to: {bool('')}") print(f"Positve number 1 is evaluated to : {bool(1)}") print(f"Negative -1 is evaluated to: {bool(-1)}") print(f"A string 'abc' is evaluated to : {bool('abc')}") 
and
and gives you the first value if it is False, otherwise, it gives you the second value.
print(f"True and True: { True and True}"); print(f"False and False: { False and False}"); print(f"True and False: { True and False}"); print(f"False and True: { False and True}"); 
Let's compare some numbers and some strings.
print(f"True and True: { bool(10) and bool(10)}"); print(f"False and False: { bool(0) and bool(10)}"); print(f"True and False: { bool(10) and bool(0)}"); print(f"False and True: { bool(0) and bool(10)}"); print() print(f"10 and 10: { 10 and 10}"); print(f"0 and 0: { 0 and 0}"); print(f"10 and 0: { 10 and 0}"); print(f"0 and 10: { 0 and 10}"); print() print(f"'abc' and 'xyz': { 'abc' and 'xyz'}"); print(f"'' and '': { '' and 'xyz'}"); print(f"'abc' and '': { 'abc' and ''}"); print(f"'' and 'xyz': { '' and 'xyz'}");

or gives you the first value if it is True, otherwise it gives you the second value.

not
not negates any boolean value.
not True is evaluated to False.
not False is evaluated to True.
print(f"True: { True}" ); print(f"not True: {not True}" ); print() print(f"False: { False}" ); print(f"not False: {not False}" ); print() print(f"35: { 35}" ); print(f"not 35: {not 35}" ); print() print(f"'': { ''}" ); print(f"not '': {not ''}" ); print() print(f"'abc': { 'abc'}" ); print(f"not 'abc': {not 'abc'}" );
