I have a question about if statements:
If i = 8, will it ever check for e or r? |

Most languages will check the second argument only if the first is not enough to determine the outcome of the expression. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short-circuit_evaluation You can check for this yourself, by having the second argument of a boolean expression to perform some observable side-effect. |
