Hi guys, my question is essentially in the title. Basically I've learned that in Java the && operator acts like a short circuit, so that if the first condition evaluates to false it doesn't look at the rest of the statement. I assumed this was the case in c++ but I'm writing a bit of code which first checks that an index has not exceeded a list size, then compares that index in the list to another number. Something like:
//let's say list.size()=4;
for(int i=0; i<10; i++)
{
if(i < list.size() && list.get(i) == 5)
//do something
...
}
That's not the exact code but it illustrates the point. I assume that since i > the list size the second half won't get evaluated. But it appears that it still does, and I believe this is causing a Seg Fault. I know I can use nested ifs but that's such an eyesore and a waste of space. Any help?
