Describe how short-circuit evaluation works when evaluating compound Boolean expressions. Show an example.

What will be an ideal response?

The expressions in each part of a compound Boolean expression are evaluated only as much as necessary to determine whether the entire expression is true or false. This feature is called short-circuit evaluation. With the && operator, both Boolean expressions must be true before the action in the statement can occur. If the first expression is false, the second expression is never evaluated because its value does not matter. For example, if a is not greater than LIMIT in the following if statement, then the evaluation is complete because there is no need to evaluate whether b is greater than LIMIT.
if(a > LIMIT && b > LIMIT)
WriteLine("Both are greater than LIMIT");
