Logical Operations

!(x)

Boolean not. Implements three-valued logic, returning missing if x is missing.

See also ~ for bitwise not.

Examples

julia> !true
false

julia> !false
true

julia> !missing
missing

julia> .![true false true]

!f::Function

Predicate function negation: when the argument of ! is a function, it returns a composed function which computes the boolean negation of f.

See also ∘.

Examples

julia> str = "∀ ε > 0, ∃ δ > 0: |x-y| < δ ⇒ |f(x)-f(y)| < ε"
"∀ ε > 0, ∃ δ > 0: |x-y| < δ ⇒ |f(x)-f(y)| < ε"

julia> filter(isletter, str)
"εδxyδfxfyε"

julia> filter(!isletter, str)
"∀  > 0, ∃  > 0: |-| <  ⇒ |()-()| < "

x && y

Short-circuiting boolean AND.

See also &, the ternary operator ? :, and the manual section on control flow.

Examples

julia> x = 3;

julia> x > 1 && x < 10 && x isa Int
true

julia> x < 0 && error("expected positive x")
false

x || y

Short-circuiting boolean OR.

See also: |, xor, &&.

Examples

julia> pi < 3 || ℯ < 3
true

julia> false || true || println("neither is true!")
true

all(itr) -> Bool

Test whether all elements of a boolean collection are true, returning false as soon as the first false value in itr is encountered (short-circuiting). To short-circuit on true, use any.

If the input contains missing values, return missing if all non-missing values are true (or equivalently, if the input contains no false value), following three-valued logic.

See also: all!, any, count, &, , &&, allunique.

Examples

julia> a = [true,false,false,true]
4-element Vector{Bool}:
 1
 0
 0
 1

julia> all(a)
false

julia> all((println(i); v) for (i, v) in enumerate(a))
1
2
false

julia> all([missing, false])
false

julia> all([true, missing])
missing

all(p, itr) -> Bool

Determine whether predicate p returns true for all elements of itr, returning false as soon as the first item in itr for which p returns false is encountered (short-circuiting). To short-circuit on true, use any.

If the input contains missing values, return missing if all non-missing values are true (or equivalently, if the input contains no false value), following three-valued logic.

Examples

julia> all(i->(4<=i<=6), [4,5,6])
true

julia> all(i -> (println(i); i < 3), 1:10)
1
2
3
false

julia> all(i -> i > 0, [1, missing])
missing

julia> all(i -> i > 0, [-1, missing])
false

julia> all(i -> i > 0, [1, 2])
true

all(A; dims)

Test whether all values along the given dimensions of an array are true.

Examples

 1  0
 1  1

julia> all(A, dims=1)
1×2 Matrix{Bool}:
 1  0

julia> all(A, dims=2)
2×1 Matrix{Bool}:
 0
 1

all(p, A; dims)

Determine whether predicate p returns true for all elements along the given dimensions of an array.

Examples

julia> A = [1 -1; 2 2]
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
 1  -1
 2   2

julia> all(i -> i > 0, A, dims=1)
1×2 Matrix{Bool}:
 1  0

julia> all(i -> i > 0, A, dims=2)
2×1 Matrix{Bool}:
 0
 1

any(itr) -> Bool

Test whether any elements of a boolean collection are true, returning true as soon as the first true value in itr is encountered (short-circuiting). To short-circuit on false, use all.

If the input contains missing values, return missing if all non-missing values are false (or equivalently, if the input contains no true value), following three-valued logic.

See also: all, count, sum, |, , ||.

Examples

julia> a = [true,false,false,true]
4-element Vector{Bool}:
 1
 0
 0
 1

julia> any(a)
true

julia> any((println(i); v) for (i, v) in enumerate(a))
1
true

julia> any([missing, true])
true

julia> any([false, missing])
missing

any(p, itr) -> Bool

Determine whether predicate p returns true for any elements of itr, returning true as soon as the first item in itr for which p returns true is encountered (short-circuiting). To short-circuit on false, use all.

If the input contains missing values, return missing if all non-missing values are false (or equivalently, if the input contains no true value), following three-valued logic.

Examples

julia> any(i->(4<=i<=6), [3,5,7])
true

julia> any(i -> (println(i); i > 3), 1:10)
