Any way to override the and operator in Python?

I tried overriding __and__, but that is for the & operator, not and - the one that I want. Can I override and?

No you can't override and and or. With the behavior that these have in Python (i.e. short-circuiting) they are more like control flow tools than operators and overriding them would be more like overriding if than + or -.

You can influence the truth value of your objects (i.e. whether they evaluate as true or false) by overriding __nonzero__ (or __bool__ in Python 3).

You cannot override the and, or, and not boolean operators.

Not really. There's no special method name for the short-circuit logic operators.
