is this AND valid?

Posted: Mar 22, 2002 4:33 AM

if (RegisterLine1 == RegisterLine2 & RegisterLine2 == RegisterLine3 & RegisterLine3 == RegisterLine1)

Is Java limited to only 2? or can I use 3 or more?

There is no limit such as 2 to 3. You can have as many boolean expressions connected with & as you want.

...I've never heard of that limit, either, but isn't it supposed to be "&&" in that kind of a statement?

HTH!

hi, gunnam

& is used in a bitwise operation. you should use double & (&&) for AND in comparison. no restriction on how many AND you use.
