+=== Conjunction ===
+The Python operator for conjunction is '''''and'''''.
+ >>> True and False
+ False
+ >>> True and True
+ True
+ >>> False and False
+ False
+ >>> False and True
+ False
+The '''and''' operator works by evaluating until it runs into something false, and return the value that evaluated to false. If everything is True, it returns the last thing it evaluated.
+ >>> "a" and "b"
+ <nowiki>'b'</nowiki>
+ >>> "" and "b"
+ <nowiki>''</nowiki>
+ >>> True and 7
+ >>> True and [] and "a"
+ []
+=== Disjunction ===
+The '''''or''''' operator works similar to the '''and''' operator. It returns the first value to be true, or the final value if there is no true value.
+ >>> False or ('a', 'b') or 'c'
+ ('a', 'b')
+ >>> False or True
+ True
+ >>> <nowiki>''</nowiki> or False
+ False
+ >>> <nowiki>''</nowiki> or False or ()
