I would assume that the way mudos handles it is it returns a or b rather than true or false. The propre way to deal with it should be to return true if (a||b) and since both 3 and 5 are true that's what you get.

  Secondly, is treating an integer as a boolean value in this way stepping on
undefined or implementation defined behavior either in LPC or regular C?
