How do i add boolean in c?

Question

I want to do a while loop with a boolean kind of like in python.

I want something like:

while(player1_health > 0 or player2_health > 0){
    //code
}

Perhaps getting hold of a C programming book would be a quicker way to learn the C programming language — Ed Heal, Jan 02 '21 at 07:28

There is no or operator in C, In C we use symbol ||, called as logical OR operator.

Use This

while( (player1_health > 0) || (player2_health > 0) ) {
    //code
}

Update: Looks like C99 includes or , and for operators || , &&, if you are using C99 it works with the inclusion of header file #include <iso646.h>

It is if you `#include `. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17365271/and-and-operator-in-c – John Zwinck Jan 02 '21 at 07:30
Thanks @JohnZwinck, I learned something new, updated the post, is that OK? – IrAM Jan 02 '21 at 07:50
The 'or' from `#include ` is a macro, so it is not part of the language. The 'or' operator in C is `||`. – Edgar G. Jan 02 '21 at 08:04
