title: Symbolic vs word operators eg ( '||' vs 'or' and '!' vs 'not')
body: <p>I think <code>or</code> is keyword in c++.</p>
  
  <p>It might be that I've been doing too much python code recently but I find <code>or</code> is more readable than <code>||</code> and <code>xor</code> much more readable than <code>^</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Is it a good idea to use the word alternatives to the symbolic operators?<br>
  Why don't I see them used more?</p>
