I have a quick question about using logical operators in an if statement.

Currently I have an if statement that checks if x equals to 5 or 4 or 78:

if ((x == 5) || (x == 4) || (x == 78)) {
blah
}

And I was wondering if I could just condense all that to:

if (x == 5 || 4 || 78) {
blah
}

Sorry for such a basic question, I’ve just started learning C.
