Logical Expressions in Release 7.0, EhP2
Other versions: 7.31 | 7.40 | 7.54
Note
The program DEMO_EXPRESSIONS shows examples of the logical expressions in Release 7.0, EhP2.
Modification 1
Boolean Functions
The new built-in Boolean functions boolc
and boolx accept logical expressions as arguments and return their truth values in the form of character strings or byte strings.
Modification 2
Predicate Functions
The new predicate functions return truth values and can be used like relational expressions. Predicate functions for character-like arguments were introduced in Release 7.0, EhP2.
Modification 3
New Boolean Operator EQUIV
The new Boolean operator EQUIV enables an equivalence relationship between two
logical expressions.
