Operator precedence. || (logical or) has a higher precedence than = (assignment). So the expression if(a=8 || b==5) is the same as if(a = (8 || b==5)). Note that you're using the assignment operator = instead of the comparison operator ==. The expression (8 || b==5) evalutes to true, or 1 as an integer. So what if(a=8 || b==5) does is set a to 1 and execute the next line, because the whole expression evalutes to true. So the output is (1*1=)1. The last line prints (a=)1 again => output: 11.

Run this in Code Playground or compile it on your computer, then you'll see.
