+<p>Expression evaluation may produce a result (e.g., evaluation of <code>2+2</code> produces the result <code>4</code>), may generate side-effects (e.g. evaluation of <code><a href="http://en.cppreference.com/w/c/io/fprintf"><span class="kw851">printf</span></a><span class="br0">(</span><span class="st0">"%d"</span>,<span class="nu0">4</span><span class="br0">)</span></code> sends the character <code>'4'</code> to the standard output stream), and may designate objects or functions.</p>
