The pipe character (|) is used to perform a bit-wise OR operation in NumPy and Pandas:

import numpy as np
x = np.array([True, False, False])
y = np.array([True, True, False])
x | y
array([ True, True, False])

A bit-wise operation returns True when there is at least one True value - the reason we get False for the third element is that the third element in x and y is False.

Note that as long as one operand (either x or y) is a NumPy array or a Pandas Series, the bit-wise operation would work:

np.array([False, False]) | [True,False]
array([ True, False])
