pre-decrement and post-increment issue [duplicate]

  • Unexpected order of evaluation (compiler bug?) [duplicate]

Hi I am currently studying for my first exam in C++ programming and I am having this issue:



int x = 12;

int y = 2;

cout << x++ <<" "<< --x; //Output: 11 12


I expected the output to be: 11 11, because 'cout' goes from right to left so the pre-decrement on x (--x) should decrement the value of x, and x++ wouldn't print out 12 because it is post-decrement. Is this an example of undefined behaviour?



cout << x++ << " " << --y; //Output: 12 1


While this line outputs the expected value of x.



Thanks in advance.

    "because 'cout' goes from right to left" nope, because you don't have any sequence points between those operations
