Question

Answer 1

int a=30,b=1, c=5, i=10; i=b<a<c;

i=b<a<c

is interpreted as:

1. compute (b<a)
2. compare the result to see if it is < c
3. place that result into the variable i

So this is what happens:

1. b<a is evaluated as 1<30, which is true, so the result is 1 .
2. next this 1 result is compared to c, which is evaluated as 1< 5, which is also true, so that result is also 1
3. this final 1 result is set as the value in the variable i.
