SUMMARY
The shunting-yard algorithm can effectively handle logic processing by treating boolean operators similarly to arithmetic operators, where 1 represents true and 0 represents false. In programming languages like C and C++, binary operators such as addition, multiplication, and logical operators can be utilized in conjunction with the shunting-yard algorithm. However, the implementation of this algorithm may vary based on compiler optimizations, which can influence whether the algorithm is employed in processing infix expressions. Proper operator precedence must be established for accurate logic evaluation.
