which in turn the actual value being returned is a truthy or a falsey.
That cleared the mystery in my head entirely.
I wouldn't have asked so many follow-up questions in the thread if i
received that kind of a response.
Thank you very much for this response.
If the result is known after evaluating the first argument, the first
argument is returned. If it has to evaluate the second argument, the
second argument is returned (by that point it has already forgotten
the value of the first argument).
So, the less it has to calculate to determine the correct result of an
expression the better.
Thanks again very much.
