Message: [QUOTE="Keith Thompson, post: 3783679"] [i] Order of evaluation has very little to do with this. [...] No, the order of evaluation is unspecified. An operation may only be evaluated after its operands have been evaluated, and sequence points impose some more constraints; other than that, the language deliberately does not specify order of evaluation. In this case, though, the order in which the operands are evaluated is irrelevant to the final result. Operator precedence (which is expressed indirectly in the grammar) controls which operator applies to which operand(s); it doesn't specify ordering. [...][/i] [/QUOTE]
