how come you're so sure?!

Posted: **Wed Apr 13, 2005 11:37 pm**

Because it is...

the above code returns 42 as the answer because it sort of borkes the order of operations, but dosen't...

1 + 5 * 8 + 1

it dosen't sum the two definitions first.

* computer nerd steps in *

1 + 5 * 8 + 1 gets evaluated as 1 + (5 * 8) + 1 == 42. This code snippet is evil. The #defines should've been written as:

Code: Select all

#define SIX    (1 + 5)
#define NINE   (8 + 1)

But it's funny. A little.
