Can we use function on left side of an expression in C and C++?
In C, it might not be possible to have function names on left side of an expression, but it’s possible in C++.
#include<iostream> using namespace std; /* such a function will not be safe if x is non static variable of it */ int &fun() { static int x; return x; } int main() { fun() = 10; /* this line prints 10 on screen */ printf ( " %d " , fun()); getchar (); return 0; } |
