How to understand it?

int a=2000; if (a%4==0 && a%100!=0 II a%400==0) printf("yes"); ---- Output: yes ---- How does computer work? I think if "&&" is equal to "ll", cmputer should be work from left to right. So, when it goes to "&& a%100!=0", it will return false. But the output is "yes". How to understand it? Thank you!

&& in most programs has higher priority to || But that's actually not your question. Even if you just evaluate left to right you have 1 && 0 || 1 = 0 || 1 = 1. Nothing wrong with that.

The keyword here is 'operator precedence'. And since this is different between languages, you gotta google that table for your language and swallow that information.

man, the pipe-lines - these two pipes "||" - means "or" and not means "and" like "&&" so when you put "... || a%400==0" in anyplace in a code, you made the all rest of condition previous or next will be TRUE(be cause 2000 % 400 = 0 it's true), like it: //code: if(false || true){ // ... } it ever be true, be cause some condition is true: && : All conditions needed be true to it be true || : just only one condition needed true to it be true I hope to have help you sry, my english is a shit

The ‚if‘ condition is evaluated in its entirety before jumping to the result. So while (a%4 == 0 && a%100 != 0) would result in a FALSE, the condition a%400 == 0 is TRUE. The OR connection between the former and the latter part means the overall result is TRUE.
