NI>Is anyone familiar with the "Goes-To" operator?  Consider the following code:

 Nope....


NI>#include <stdio.h>
NI>int main(int argc, char* argv[])
NI>{
NI>    int x = 10;
NI>    while( x --> 0 ) // x goes to 0
NI>    {
NI>      printf("%d ", x);
NI>    }

NI>   return 0;
NI>}

NI>This actually compiles and runs (seriously).  Source:


Crap like thqat is a pet peeve of mine ...

While (even)


   while(x-->0)

might compile, I'd feel a LOT better seeing



   while( x-- > 0 )

... I ain't no damed 'puter, let IT read that crap if i wants to. ;)
