Multiple logical expressions in one if statement in java

Question

Hi I have this example:

  (1)
  if(false && false ||true){
            System.out.println("a");
  }

result:

a

and

  (2)
  if(false && false | true){
            System.out.println("a");
  }

result:

(empty)

In case (1) we have short-circuit OR , but in the second we have long-circuit OR. From where comes the difference in the behavior? I know that the expression is evaluated from left to right and AND have bigger priority than OR, so I can't figure out why this happens in case 2?

Answer 1

(1)

if (false && false || true) {
    System.out.println("a");
}

Here && has higher precedence than ||

1. false && false gets evaluated first resulting false.
2. false || true gets evaluated resulting true.

So the result outputs "a".

(2)

if (false && false | true) {
    System.out.println("a");
}

Here | has higher precedence than &&

1. false | true gets evaluated first resulting true.
2. false && true gets evaluated resulting false.

So nothing is output.

Hope it makes sense
