Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

In programming, different operators are used for bitwise and logical operations. The logical AND operator checks if both conditions are true and returns a Boolean result. The & symbol is a bitwise AND operator, which operates on individual bits of integers. It is not used for logical operations. The && operator is the standard logical AND operator in languages like C, C++, Java, and JavaScript. It evaluates the left operand first; if it is false, the right operand is not evaluated (short-circuiting). The | symbol is a bitwise OR operator, not a logical AND operator. The |& symbol is not a valid operator in standard programming languages. Therefore, the correct Boolean operator for logical AND is &&.
