                                12.
What will be the output of the program?
 
                                    #include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int i=2;
    printf("%d, %d\n", ++i, ++i);
    return 0;
}
Answer: Option
                                                    Explanation:
                                                The order of evaluation of arguments passed to a function call is unspecified.
Anyhow, we consider ++i, ++i are Right-to-Left associativity. The output of the program is 4, 3.
In TurboC, the output will be 4, 3.
In GCC, the output will be 4, 4.

                @Shefali : Difference between GCC and Turbo C compiler is that they are made by different companies.
But the standard for C language is same.
Then you must be asking why their is so much difference in output in two compilers.
So always consider GCC as prime because it is industrial standard C compiler. And Turbo C is old compiler which is not used anymore now except educational purpose to simplify complexity.

                Could you please tell me the exact difference as to why 4 4 is printed in gcc compiler where as 4 3 in turbo c.

                Where are the difference between GCC compiler and Turbo C compiler ?

                Hi Friends...
The evalution order in c is:Right to left but in c++ is Left to Right.
During the display, the values are dispaly from left to right.(both c and c++)
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a=35;
printf("%d %d %d ",a==40,a<=50,a=30);
return 0;
}
O/P : 0 1 30
For eg::
main()
{
int i=5;
printf("%d %d",++i,++i);
}
O/P:: in c::7,6 but in c++ 6,7
But it varies depends on the compiler..

Please explain it clearly ....

                It is right.. for example:
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a=35;
printf("%d %d %d ",a==40,a<=50,a=30);
return 0;
}
will u see the out put in this .. the out put will be
0 0 30
because it can read right to left in print statement, when it we write the options continuously(a==40,a<=50,a=30).
                #include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a=35;
printf("%d %d %d ",a==40,a<=50,a=30);
return 0;

                printf("%d, %d", ++i, ++i)
Here arguments in fxn prnitf() are evaluated from right to left. It is a rule in C. And at time of printing they are displayed in the Left to Right basis.

                Is associativity considered in the printf function also or only while evaluating an expression we consider the associativity ?
Can any one explain it. ?
