Title
Body
test.(c/cpp) #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char** argv) { int a = 0, b = 0; printf("a = %d, b = %d\n", a, b); b = (++a)--; printf("a = %d, b = %d\n", a, b); return 0; } If I save the above as a .cpp file, it compiles and outputs this upon execution: a = 0, b = 0 a = 0, b = 1 However, if I save it as a .c file, I get the following error: test.c:7:12: error: lvalue required as decrement operator. Shouldn't the (++a) operation be resolved before the (newValue)-- operation? Does anyone have any insight on this?
