Python already does this:

def foo():
    print ("foo")
    return True

def bar():
    print ("bar")
    return False


print (foo() or bar())
print ("")
print (bar() or foo())

Returns:

foo
True

bar
foo
True

There is no need for AndAlso or OrElse in Python, it evaluates boolean conditions lazily (docs).

In python, you can use logic gates.

You can use either, for instance, and or &.
