Theory for this problem
+
Logical AND `&&`, OR `||`, and negation `!` combine boolean conditions. Parentheses make the intended grouping explicit.
Connection to “Point in First Quadrant”: here, intermediate values are best kept in named variables so the formula stays readable and data types remain clear.

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main() {
long long x, y;
cin >> x >> y;
cout << ((x > 0 && y > 0) ? "YES" : "NO") << '\n';
return 0;
