if coin == 25 | 10 | 5:

If I replace the ‘|’ with ‘or’ the code runs just fine. I’m not sure why I can’t use ‘|’ in the same statement.

Doing the following doesn’t work either:

if coin == 25 | coin == 10 | coin == 5:

I know bitwise operators can only be used with integers, but other then that is there another difference from logical operators?

    honestly yes you’re probably not going to use them a lot, if at all, especially in python

      You might use them with sets:

      a = {1, 2, 3}
      b = {2, 3, 4}
      
      a | b  # {1, 2, 3, 4}
      a & b  # {2, 3}
      a ^ b  # {1, 4}
      a - b  # {1}
      b - a  # {4}
