| # Downto Operator
 | |
| 
 | |
| In [C](c.md) the so called "downto" operator is a [joke](jokes.md) played on nubs. It goes like this: Did you know C has a hidden downto operator `-->`? Try it:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| #include <stdio.h>
 | |
| 
 | |
| int main(void)
 | |
| {
 | |
|   int n = 20;
 | |
| 
 | |
|   while (n --> 10) // n goes down to 10
 | |
|     printf("%d\n",n);
 | |
| 
 | |
|   return 0;
 | |
| }
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Indeed this compiles and works. In fact `-->` is just `--` and `>` operators. |
