Explain the | operator in MATLAB.
The | operator performs element-wise logical OR between two arrays or logical values. It returns true if at least one of the corresponding elements is true.

What does the ~ operator do in MATLAB?
The ~ operator performs logical NOT. It inverts the logical value: true becomes false, and false becomes true.

Given A = [true false true], B = [false true true], what is A & B?
A & B results in [false false true] because logical AND is true only where both A and B are true.
