In java is there any way to use AND instead of &&
<p>I just want to know that is it possible in java to use </p>

<pre><code>class{
private  final static String AND="&amp;&amp;";
public static void main(String...args)
{
    String str="subodh";
    if(str!=null AND str.equals("subodh") )
    {
        System.out.println(str);
    }

}
}
</code></pre>

<p>The above is not allowed but is there any such kind of way through we can use it by putting some extra efforts if it's please let me know or please put your openions.
Thanks</p>
