OR (boolean)

The OR conditional operator evaluates an expression to true (-1) if any of the arguments is also true.

Syntax

IF expression1 OR expression2 THEN {code}

Description

• OR adds an alternative to another conditional evaluation. If either element in the evaluation is true then the evaluation is true.
• Parenthesis may be used to clarify the order of comparisons in an evaluation.
• Not to be confused with the AND and OR numerical operations.

Relational Operators:

Symbol	Condition	Example Usage
=	Equal	IF a = b THEN
<>	NOT equal	IF a <> b THEN
<	Less than	IF a < b THEN
>	Greater than	IF a > b THEN
<=	Less than or equal	IF a <= b THEN
>=	Greater than or equal	IF a >= b THEN

Example(s)

a% = 100
b% = 50

IF (a% > b% AND a% < 100) OR b% = 50 THEN PRINT "True"

True

Explanation: The first evaluation was False, but the OR evaluation made the statement true and the code was executed.
