What is the outcome of the logical operation F and T?

  1. T

  2. F

  3. TRUE

  4. FALSE

The correct answer is: F

The logical operation involves two operands, which are often represented as boolean values: T for true and F for false. In logic, the "AND" operation results in true only if both operands are true. In this case, the two operands are F (false) and T (true). According to the rules of the AND operation, if one of the operands is false, the entire expression evaluates to false, regardless of the other operand. Therefore, since one of the values (F) is false, the outcome of the operation F and T is false. This leads to the conclusion that the correct result of this logical expression is indeed F, which corresponds to the answer choice indicating false. This understanding of boolean logic is essential as it forms the basis of many programming constructs and decision-making processes in computer science.
