Question

Confused about if condition, how does it executes following statements.

if(1 && (1 || 0) != 0)  or  if(1 || (1 && 0) != 0)

In above if statement what is the sequence of executing/validating the statements.
(left to right or right to left) if left to right, then if first argument/expression is true does it evaluates 2nd expression/argument? is it true for both the logical AND and OR operators.

Thanks.

Answer 1

Logical && short circuits if the first operand evaluates to false (because false && x is false for all x)

Logical || short circuits if the first operand evaluates to true (because true || x is true for all x)

They both evaluate left-to-right.
