@all sorry i give wrong explanation by mistake..:P :P printf("") returns no if characters.. in this case returns 0 . which is assigned to ch
so in ch 0 is stored and 0 is the ascii value of null character when we using ch in --- if (ch) --> it will reduce to if(0) -- as 0 is the ascii value of null character so the output "it doesn't matter" On Tue, Aug 9, 2011 at 10:28 PM, Dipankar Patro <dip10c...@gmail.com> wrote: > o/p: > It doesn't matter > > Reason: > printf() returns the number of characters printed to screen. > since printf("") will return 0, hence the *else* is selected. > > > On 9 August 2011 22:25, siddharth srivastava <akssps...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> >> >> On 9 August 2011 22:20, tech rascal <techrascal...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> #include<stdio.h> >>> int main() >>> { >>> char ch; >>> if((ch=printf(""))) >>> printf("it matters"); >>> else >>> printf("it doesn't matter"); >>> return 0; >>> } >>> >>> >> It doesn't matter >> >> >> >>> >>> what will b the output?? >>> >>> -- >>> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups >>> "Algorithm Geeks" group. >>> To post to this group, send email to algogeeks@googlegroups.com. >>> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to >>> algogeeks+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. >>> For more options, visit this group at >>> http://groups.google.com/group/algogeeks?hl=en. >>> >> >> >> >> -- >> Regards >> Siddharth Srivastava >> >> >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups >> "Algorithm Geeks" group. >> To post to this group, send email to algogeeks@googlegroups.com. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to >> algogeeks+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. >> For more options, visit this group at >> http://groups.google.com/group/algogeeks?hl=en. >> > > > > -- > > ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ > > Please do not print this e-mail until urgent requirement.
