my question is why should we put || and not && between the current grade i thought that if its || it means its okay if either of the conditions is true execute
that means if the current grade is 0 it will echo cause 0 is smaller than 12
elseif($currentGrade >= 9 || $currentGrade <= 12){ echo 'this is only for highschool student'; }
