When I use two variables in a for loop with different conditions two conditions like I have used below i<3,j<2
the for loop is always executing till the second condition fails.
#include<iostream>
#include<conio.h>
using namespace std ;
int main()
{
int i,j ;
for(i=0,j=0;i<3,j<2;i++,j++)
{
cout<<"hello" ;
}
getch() ;
return 0 ;
}
In that code, hello
is printed 2 times. Why?
If I use i<3,j<10
, "Hello" is printed 10 times. I can't understand why the first condition is being neglected. Is it compiler dependent or something else?
Every thing works normal if I replace with conditions like || (OR) or &&(AND).An other thing is that I cannot initialize i and j in the for loop itself, it is showing me an error, but works fine when I declare variables in C style or one variable outside the for loop, why is it so?
Compiler I have used is Orwell Dev C++.
Thanks in advance.
for(i=0,j=0;i<3,j<2;i++,j++)
is equivalent to
for(i=0,j=0;j<2;i++,j++)
The comma expression takes on the value of the last expression.
Whichever condition is first, will be disregarded, and the second one will be used only.
