From the help page for Logical Operators:

?"!"

     '&' and '&&' indicate logical AND and '|' and '||' indicate
     logical OR.  The shorter form performs elementwise comparisons in
     much the same way as arithmetic operators.  The longer form
     evaluates left to right examining only the first element of each
     vector.  Evaluation proceeds only until the result is determined.
     The longer form is appropriate for programming control-flow and
     typically preferred in 'if' clauses.

Why the last "which" in the following example doesn't
work? Is there a simple way to identify the indices of
array elements that meet multiple criteria?

Thanks.
