test = sum(bool(x) for x in logflags)==len(logflags) is yet another possibility (without the effectiveness of shortcircuiting, just like the quoted approach). Some might prefer test = not sum(not x for x in logflags) but that's starting to border on the obscure;-). If by "logicals" you mean "bool" instances (True and False) only, then test = sum(logflags) == len(logflags) is simpler and fast than, but equivalent to, my first suggestion.
