I was trying to look up on to some basics i stumbled on this problem where I was required to give a condition and print a statement based on whether the number was odd or even.
Here's the first code : https://ideone.com/vS8wgs
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int x = 18;
if(x%2 == 0 && 2<=x<=5){
cout << "x lies between 2 and 5" << endl;
}
if(x%2 == 0 && 6<=x<=20){
cout << "x lies between 6 and 20" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
Answer to the first one turns out to be :
x lies between 2 and 5
x lies between 6 and 20
Here the second variant : https://ideone.com/rQ7KoW
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int x =18;
if(x%2 == 0 && x >= 2 && x <=5){
cout << "x lies between 2 and 5" << endl;
}
if(x%2 == 0 && x >= 6 && x<=20){
cout << "x lies between 6 and 20" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
Answer to the Second one turns out to be :
x lies between 6 and 20
Up until now i was assuming both would return the same result, I would like to know the reason for both not having same functionality.
