Evaluation of the following expression

Question

The following code snippet:

int i=-3,j=2,k=0,m;

m=++i && ++j || ++k;

can be evaluated using two concepts,I believe:

1.Since ++

Answer 1

Oli is right... You're confusing precedence with evaluation order.

Precedence means that the expression is interpreted as:

m = ((((++i) && (++j)) || (++k));

As opposed to, say:

m = (++(i && ++(j || (++k)))

Precedence doesn't change the fact that the LHS of the || operator will always be evaluated before the RHS.
