 These same operators can be used stand-alone in expressions to generate boolean values, which are typically ''0'' or ''1''.
+==== Logical ====
+Logical operators are often combined with expressions that contain comparison operators in order to make meaningful decisions in the program. This means most "business" problems in programming can be broken down into //some// variation of:
+<code>
+Solution = Logical operations of expressions, containing
+           comparisons of variables, containing
+           anything from numbers to text to lists.
+</code>
+If you can abstract a problem into this framework, you are mastering logical operators.
+  * ''&&'' - Logical AND
+  * ''||'' - Logical OR
+The more legible ''AND'' and ''OR'' may also be used, but precedence may differ. More testing is needed.

-The Z axis is remembered from the last LOCATE call if not specified, and defaults to 0.
+The Z axis defaults to 0.
 Any missing axes from a LOCATE call will be filled in with the last value used for that axis. All axes default to 0 if LOCATE is called after a CLEAR.
