What is the output of the program
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int x = 10, y = 20, z = 5, i;
    i = x < y < z;
    printf("%d\n", i);
    return 0;
}
0
1
Error
None of these
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Since x < y turns to be TRUE it is replaced by 1. Then 1 < z is compared and to be TRUE. The 1 is assigned to i.

@Sai.
i=((30<20)<5); //in this (30<20) is false so it is assigned 0.
i=(0<5); //in this (0<5) is true so it is assigned 1.
i=1;

False=0, True=1

int main()
{
int x = 30, y = 20, z = 5, i;
i = x <y <z;
printf("%d\n", i);
return 0;
}

Please explain this program.

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int x = 10, y = 20, z = 5, i;
i = x,y,z;
printf("%d\n", i);
return 0;
}

If you try the above code

step 1: = is having highest priority than ,

step2: i=10 will be initalized

step3: , operater will travell form left to right

So the out put will be 10.

{
int x = 10, y = 20, z = 5, i;
i = x < y < z;
printf("%d\n", i);
return 0;
}

step 1: In the above code < is having highest priority and = is having priority next to <

step 2: < symbol have left associate,so it will finish all the things with <

step 3: = is having next priority so values get into i

i=1.

Can you explain in depth? why it is replacing with 1?

@Shiva

Ans is 0 because x>y is false so its return 0 & 0>5 also false so ans is 0.
