Both languages have
...
a type representing the logic values, true and false. Java calls the type boolean and uses the names (literals) true and false, whereas Python calls it Boolean and uses True and False
...
. Note that in Python, the values 0 and "" will also be interpreted as false in a condition and all other values will be true, including True, of course.
Python's Boolean operators:, and, or, and not are replaced by: have corresponding Java operators &&, || and !.

Negation is also formed differently between those two programming languages in Java.

The comparison operator for numbers are the same as in Python. For built-in types, instead of == in Python, Java uses equals method.
In JavaIn Java, most of the comparison operators ( , >, <, >=, and <=) , can be applied only to primitive numerical types, while in Python, the comparison operators can be applied to numbers, strings, and other types of objects, and compare values in some appropriate way (e.g. numeric order, lexical order) where possible. . Two (The equality operators, == and !=) , can be applied to any object, but when applied to reference types they test for same (different) object rather than same (different) value.

The comparison operators for numbers are the same as in Python. For class types, instead of == in Python, you should use the equals method in Java.
