 Absolutely false!
 
 C does not specify the order in which mathematical expressions are
 evaluated, unless the programmer makes these completely explicity.
 
 And indeed compiling with optimizations turned on can eliminate many
 subexpressions, cause compile-time evaluatiosn, register sorage etc, which
 can also change results.
