The third one is just (x=x+1), because the middle bit is just always false and can be ignored.

What if int overflows? Is it still false?

[–] rhpp@programming.dev 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Still false, thanks to compiler optimizations. Remember that integer overflow is UB. (unless you're using unsigned int or a programming language which strictly defines integer overflow, possibly as an error)

P.S.: Assuming this is C/C++

No, because it's UB, the compiler is free to do whatever, like making demons fly out of your nose
