# numpy.logical_or

`numpy.``logical_or`(x1, x2[, out]) = <ufunc 'logical_or'>

  Compute the truth value of x1 OR x2 element-wise.

  Parameters: | x1, x2 : array_like Logical OR is applied to the elements of x1 and x2. They have to be of the same shape.
  Returns: | y : {ndarray, bool} Boolean result with the same shape as x1 and x2 of the logical OR operation on elements of x1 and x2.
