问题
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 ++ operator has greater precedence than the logical operators,so first all increment operators will be evaluted,then && having higher precedence than || will be computed.In this process,k will be incremented.
2.First && operator will be evaluated.For this ++ i and ++j will be computed.Since the result of the && operator is 1,no need to evaluate the ++k.So k will not be incremented.
When I try it on a system, the result proves reasoning 2 to be correct and 1 to be wrong. Why is it so?
回答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.
回答2:
In attempting to be efficient, evaluation of an OR statement (executed from left to right) stops when the LHS is true. There is no need to start evaluating the RHS - there is no concept of "precedence" except within the same group of an expression (when it matters to the value of the expression whether you first do A or B. Example: 5 + 3 * 2 should evaluate to 11. But in evaluating ( 5 + 6 > 3 * 2) it doesn't matter whether you do the addition before the multiplication - it doesn't change the result of the comparison. And in practice this gets evaluated left-to-right. Thus you get the result you observed.

回答3:
The && and || operators force left-to-right evaluation. So i++ is evaluated first. If the result of the expression is not 0, then the expression j++ is evaluated. If the result of i++ && j++ is not 1, then k++ is evaluated.
The && and || operators both introduce sequence points, so the side effects of the ++ operators are applied before the next expression is evaluated. Note that this is not true in general; in most circumstances, the order in which expressions are evaluated and the order in which side effects are applied is unspecified.
