Anyone ever heard of the arrow operator in C? The following code counts down from i-1 to 0 #include main() { int i = 10; while (i -- 0) printf("%d ", i); return 0; }

Anyone ever heard of the arrow operator in C? The following code counts down from i-1 to 0

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
int i = 10;
while (i --> 0) printf("%d
", i);
return 0;
}

this is not an arrow operator, it is a post decrement of i followed by a comparison, i.e.:
i-->0 means "i--">0
this means check if i is greater than zero first, then decrement it.
