Here why 'y' value is 1?

Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
int x,y,z;
x=y=1;
z=++x||++y;
cout<<x<<y<<z;

return 0;
} output :211

IF we use " logical and " operater instead of " logical or " y value is 2.
also z=++x||(++y) gives y as 1

Answer 1

I think its because when you have a logical or operator it checks if the first condition is true then stops checking the rest as it doesnt matter so ++x is true so no need to carry on.
