Results of comparison operations in C and C++
In C, data type of result of comparison operations is int. For example, see the following program.
Take a step-up from those "Hello World" programs. Learn to implement data structures like Heap, Stacks, Linked List and many more! Check out our Data Structures in C course to start learning today.
#include<stdio.h>int main(){ int x = 10, y = 10; printf("%d \n", sizeof(x == y)); printf("%d \n", sizeof(x < y)); return 0;} |
Output:
4 4
Whereas in C++, type of results of comparison operations is bool. For example, see the following program.
#include<iostream>using namespace std; int main(){ int x = 10, y = 10; cout << sizeof(x == y) << endl; cout << sizeof(x < y); return 0;} |
Output:
1 1
