Description:
------------
In Example #1 of the manual page for Logical Operators ( http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.logical.php) the examples from the second and third sections are misleading. It appears that the statements $f = false or true; and $h = true and false; are being evaluated, then the result is stored to the variables. If this were the case then the wrong values would have been assigned, but I now realize (after much testing and reading) that the 'or' and 'and' operators have less precedence than '=' and the first value is simply being stored here. Someone else made the following post in the comments section which is much clearer than the current documentation:

"||" has a greater precedence than "="
which has a greater one than "or"
<?php
// same as ($e = (false || true)),
// expression is true and $e ist assigned to true
$e = false || true;

// same as (($e = false) or true),
// expression is true but $e is assigned to false
$f = false or true;
?>
