That is, the short-circuit behavior of && won’t make any diff. in the case above.

Could you please elaborate on that a little?
I mean, I thought that logical operators work on boolean expressions and return boolean values , whereas bitwise operators work on binary digits of integer values and return an integer.

, whereas bitwise operators work on binary digits of integer values and return an integer.

In Java, when both operands are of type boolean, the bitwise operators &, | and ^ are overloaded to act as logical operators too.

However in such case both sides are always eagerly evaluated.

While the logical operators && and || are short-circuit evaluated:
