I feel 10 is the correct answer due to the pre-increment operator having a
higher precedence than the addition operator. This would mean both
increments will be done before the addition (creating 5 + 5).

Subject: increasing var twice in a statement
Hi!
Can anybody tell me what output the following program snippet should
produce according to C standard:
int main(void) {
int a;
int b;
b = 3;
a = ++b + ++b;
printf("%d\n",a);
return 0;
}
I would have expected 9, but gcc 4.1.2 produced a binary that wrote 10.
Willi
