@vaporeon_ it did fit into my brain before I burnt it

@vaporeon_ @aescling but the result of A() is an rvalue, which is not allowed to be given to & or appear on the left side of an assignment. That is the mystifying part here

@vaporeon_ @aescling yes

@alyssa a constructor returns an rvalue which is not supposed to be allowed to appear on the left side of an assignment

@vaporeon_ it should be #include <iostream>

@vaporeon_ what the fuck is mastodon is hiding the hashtag

@vaporeon_ it should be #include

@vaporeon_ evidently I have burnt my brain today

Oops there is missing declaration of the variable a. This is what you should be examining:

#include

class A {};

int main() {
A a;
std::cout << &(A() = a) << "\n";
}

@Lady I seek not only truth, but specificity and truth

I am increasing the bounty. Whoever can explain this gets 1) a compliment, 2) a headpat, and 3) a kissy on the forehead
