weird assignment thing

[swift sparrow]

Ive come across this code and i initally thought it was just wrong where the , was accidently used over the . but it compiles and produces a different results to 44.4. What is happening on that line?

void main()
{
    float promien, wysokosc, objetosc;
    float pi = 3.1415926;
    promien = 3.3;
    //
    wysokosc = 44,4;
    //
    objetosc = pi * promien * promien * wysokosc;
    printf("Objetosc walca to: %f", objetosc);
    getchar();
}

wysokosc = 44,4 is actually using the comma operator, which has lower precedence than assignment so it's really assigning 44 to wysokosc

[swift sparrow]

so is that to say there's a random dangling 4 for no reason?

[hollow hill]

the 4 will be the result of the comma operator, which goes unused

so yes

if you removed the ,4 it would work the same way

very weird

but makes sense

thanks
