In challenge answers are wrong

#define square (x) x*x printf ("%d",square (4+1)); choices: 4 9 5 25 I have chosen result 25 but it shows that the result is 9. Am I wrong with result 25?

It would be 4+1*4+1 Due operator precedence of * multiplication takes place first =>4+4+1=9

What Tony Stark means is that the sum would be processed like this: Multiplication first: 1*4 = 4 Then addition: 4 + 4 + 1 = 9

Ah yes, I missed that it was in C so it isn't BODMAS, the logic remains the same though.

Rincewind compiler doesn't follow BODMAS rule... It computes based on operator precedence & associativity
