If x is less than or equal to 5, y is set to 1 -- otherwise y is set to 0; x is then incremented.
But better would be for you to ask, "I think that this statement does [...]. Is this correct?" Or at least provide a (minimal, but complete and compileable) snippet that shows the full context.

y=x++<=5; is equivalent to y=(x++<=5);.The part inside the brackets should be evaluated first. So doesn't that mean the binary comparison and the ++ should also be evaluated before the assignment?

So the error was this statement?
y=x++<=5; is equivalent to y=(x++<=5);. バルサミコ酢やっぱいらへんで

I know that it is done after the comparison. I wanted to know if it was done after or before the assignment.
