(Solved) What is the “–>” operator in C++?

Question

--> is not an operator. It is in fact two separate operators, -- and >.

The conditional’s code decrements x, while returning x‘s original (not decremented) value, and then compares the original value with 0 using the > operator.

To better understand, the statement could be written as follows:

while( (x--) > 0 )
