interesting programming question...

[notfred]

int var = 10;
cout << (++var--)*10;
cout << "\n";
cout << (var*10);


should print:
110
100

Or is the ++var-- even allowed?

I dunno, I just thought of that.

 

[notfred]

either no one knows, or someone's compiling it right now to check and see if it works

That's one exciting question, only not for me

I don't see why not...although I haven't compiled it or anything

Its just strange that you'd want to do somthing like that.

code looks ok to me, although you could combine the couts into one line......

No I couldn't. I could combine them into 2 lines, but not one.

The line with (++var--) got a compiler error for me using GCC 2.96:

testasdf.cpp:6: non-lvalue in increment

<< cout << (++var--)*10; >>



Although some compilers allow the above statement, it is consider not a good practice (violating C standard (ANSI C?)) to change the value of a variable twice in a statement.
