And / Or

You might want to check multiple relational conditions at once. What if you wanted to know if Apple stock was above 120, but below 121? Simple relational operators are not enough! For multiple conditions, you need the And operator &, and the Or operator |.

  • & (And): An intersection. a & b is true only if both a and b are true.
  • | (Or): A union. a | b is true if either a or b is true.
apple <- c(120.00, 120.08, 119.97, 121.88)

# Both conditions must hold
(apple > 120) & (apple < 121)
[1] FALSE  TRUE FALSE FALSE

# Only one condition has to hold
(apple <= 120) | (apple > 121)
[1]  TRUE FALSE  TRUE  TRUE

The stocks data frame is available for you to use.
