I was going through geeksforgeeks and found below code
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
class Test
{
private:
int x;
int y;
public:
Test (int x = 0, int y = 0) { this->x = x; this->y = y; }
Test setX(int a) { x = a; return *this; }
Test setY(int b) { y = b; return *this; }
void print() { cout << "x = " << x << " y = " << y << endl; }
};
This class seems okay for me. But the function call and its output seems bit confusing.
int main()
{
Test obj1;
obj1.setX(10).setY(20);
obj1.print();
return 0;
}
Here, if I call setX() and setY() function in single line, then the output will be: x = 10 y = 0
else, if I call those function as given below,
int main()
{
Test obj1;
obj1.setX(10);
obj1.setY(20);
obj1.print();
return 0;
}
then the output seems x = 10 y = 20.
What is the difference between these two function call. Can someone explain using this pointer?
Thankyou in advance.
