I tried out the program and I keep getting 01...Code:What is the outcome of running the following code: int c=0; cout<<c++<<c;
Undefined
01
00
Code:psycho@Shiva:~/Programming/Laboratory$ g++ -ansi -pedantic -Wall coutUndefined.cpp
psycho@Shiva:~/Programming/Laboratory$ ./a.out
01
I believe what is ment by Undefined, is its not stated specificly in the standard what will come out, so it can vary from compiler to compiler, and/or platform to platform. Basicly, you will never know the exact outcome, so don't expect what you got to be the same as what some one else would.

This specifically includes all your expected answers, and a whole bunch of other outcomes as well.
And yes, that quiz question has the right answer.

You'll always come unstuck if you try and do too much with the increment and decrement operators.
