printf print values wrong??

Take the following printf code:

Code:

---

printf("%f %f %d",x(),y(),z());

---

Why would printf print the y() value first and the x() value second I listed them in the correct order? Is this a bug in gcc?

Making a test using printf, I didn't see this issue at all. Using the same thing as you, my code:

Code:

---

#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>

float x();
float y();
int z();

float x() { return 12.00; }
float y() { return 34.00; }
int z() { return 1234; }

int main()
{
        printf( "%f %f %d", x(), y(), z() );
        _getch();
}

---

My output was correct though.

12.000000 34.000000 1234

The only thing I could see causing it to not return correctly is that you are mixing up the functions somewhere in the code. As in x is being given the value of y, and y being given the value of x somewhere. Double check that the code is correct and each function is being given the correct value in the end result before attempting to print it out.

Thanks. That is exactly what I thought. This question was posed at another forum and didn't make sense for printf to give wrong output like that. There are logical errors why, but don't think it's a bug.
