Please ask for help on StackOverflow or the general Python mailing list. Your understanding of the operations is incorrect. "&" is NOT a logical operator ("and" is). It's a bitwise operator on integers. >>> 10 & 10 10 >>> bin(10) '0b1010' The last bit is 0, so when you "&" the result with True (which is equivalent to integer 1) the result is 0: >>> (10 & 10) & True 0 and the integer 0 is treated as False in a Boolean context. ---------- resolution: -> not a bug status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42456> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
