===Short-Circuit Evaluation=== Elixir supports short-circuit evaluation for logical operators, which means that the right operand is only evaluated if the left operand does not determine the result. This can be useful when working with conditional statements. Here's an example: ```elixir defmodule ExampleModule do def function_with_short_circuit_evaluation(true) do IO.puts("Hello, World!") end def function_with_short_circuit_evaluation(false) do IO.puts("Condition is false.") end end ExampleModule.function_with_short_circuit_evaluation(false || true) ``` In the above example, since the left operand `false` evaluates to false, the right operand `true` is not evaluated, and the output will be "Condition is false."
