z>y is true. True exists as 1 in C. 1>8 is false. Therefore, false is returned. You can do this if you want z>y>x: z>y&&y>x

First "z > y" is evaluated which is "29 > 14" which is true. Then you have "true > 8", when use in a comparison "true" is converted to the number "1" so "1 > 8" evaluates to false hence the output.
