I am using the following code in different compiler:
#include <stdio.h> int main(void) { int i = 0; int b[10] = {100,101,102,103,104,105,106,107,108,109}; int c[10] = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}; b[i + 0] = c[i++ % 100]; b[i + 0] = c[i++ % 100]; b[i + 0] = c[i++ % 100]; b[i + 0] = c[i++ % 100]; b[i + 0] = c[i++ % 100]; b[i + 0] = c[i++ % 100]; for(i = 0; i < 10; i++) printf("b[%d] = %d\n",i,b[i]); return 0; }
But I am getting different output by using Keil, the output as follows:
//Keils output... uVision3 V3.53, compiler Armcc.exe b[0] = 100 b[1] = 0 b[2] = 1 b[3] = 2 b[4] = 3 b[5] = 4 b[6] = 5 b[7] = 107 b[8] = 108 b[9] = 109 //Microsoft Visual STD 6.0 output b[0] = 0 b[1] = 1 b[2] = 2 b[3] = 3 b[4] = 4 b[5] = 5 b[6] = 106 b[7] = 107 b[8] = 108 b[9] = 109 Press any key to continue //Microsoft Visual STD 2005 output b[0] = 0 b[1] = 1 b[2] = 2 b[3] = 3 b[4] = 4 b[5] = 5 b[6] = 106 b[7] = 107 b[8] = 108 b[9] = 109 Press any key to continue //Borland C++Builder6.0 output.... b[0] = 0 b[1] = 1 b[2] = 2 b[3] = 3 b[4] = 4 b[5] = 5 b[6] = 106 b[7] = 107 b[8] = 108 b[9] = 109
Could you tell me something about this problem?
Always be careful about using a variable twice in an expression, if you also change the value of the variable in the expression.
In your code, both the left and right side of the assign makes use of i, but the right side is also modifying i with the ++.
What happens if the compiler computes the destination address before - or after - it evaluates the right-hand side?
Nothing happen, I just wonder. Previously I think that the value of 'i' would be changed before the next line. From know on I will be carefull. Thanks for your reply.
