    Just put a brackets and see how its getting evaluated.

    Check the output for both the cases below
    i=(x<y)<z;
    i=x<(y<z);

    i=x<y<z
    => i= 10<20<z
    => i= true(1) < 5
    => i= true(1)
    => i=1
    This is true If Compiler evaluates from Left to Right if same perority operator are there.
