I'm not sure that such dependences are good code.
By stating a definite order between lvalue and rvalue, you
would actually encourage this kind of code.
I agree that putting such things in code is bad, but nowadays the
solution adopted by C is Just Wrong. To help avoid bugs from your
programs the language has to avoid undefined behaviors (this is one of
the lessons of Java).
If Walter had ulimited time, the of course I'd favor either defining
the precedence, or then enforcing errors on them, and not leaving
them undefined.
$ su walter
$ ulimit -t unlimited
I swear I wanted to post this too! :o)
Nice quips, from you both... :-)
But there's a bug in the algorithm. A more correct version would be:
$ su
$ ulimit -t unlimited
$ su walter
$
