What does ~ mean in python program?

Vote count: 0

I have pandas data frame called log_data and I'm detecting outliers in the data frame using the code

 display(log_data[~((log_data[feature] >= Q1 - step) & (log_data[feature] <= Q3 + step))])

where

Q1 = np.percentile(log_data[feature],25)
    Q3 = np.percentile(log_data[feature],75)
    step = 1.5 * (Q3 - Q1)

Can anyone tell me what '~' is doing in the code

display(log_data[~((log_data[feature] >= Q1 - step) & (log_data[feature] <= Q3 + step))])
