[issue14247] "in" operator doesn't return boolean

[Georg Brandl]

Georg Brandl <georg at python.org> added the comment:

Chaining comparison operators inserts implicit "and" conditions:

  a OP b OP c OP d

is equivalent to

  (a OP b) and (b OP c) and (c OP d)

This is most useful with ==, <, <= and so forth, but "in" and "is" also count as comparison ops and have the same precedence.
