Thread: How i got this output?

Hi al,

I am a newbie to this forum...i had a problem in understanding the output which i got it when i compiled in Turbo C..

Code:

main()
{
  int i=-3,j=2,k=0,m;
  m= ++i&&++j||++k;
  printf("\n i=%d j=%d k=%d m=%d",i,j,k,m); 
}

i got the output as i=-2 j=3 k=0 m=1;

i thought the value of k would be 1..but it is printing as 0..when i changed the OR operator to some other operator i got the k value to be 1...why i am getting 0 in this case..Pls clarify my doubt

thanks for your reply laserlight...
I understood. But according to the operator precedence table "++" (prefix)increment has top priority than Logical AND (&&) and Logical OR(||)..
So in that case increment part should evaluate 1st then only logical operations should be evaluated.

i am confused with precedence and order of evaluation...can anyone explain me with an example...

Please read on wiki about operator precedence in C/ C++

i can give you an example that.

Do u know BODMAS ???

/ is having greater precedence than *,
* is having greater precedence than +,
+ is having greater precedence than -,


above are some example. Further u can study on net.

Lets say in a statement u wrote

a = b * c + d;

than first * will happen, than addition. Did u got ???
