    Ah yes you’re right, had to look it up to see for myself. It’s weird because i remember specifically changing some of my &&s for ; instead because i wanted it to not continue if exit wasn’t zero, but i must’ve misread it at the time. Time to change it back i guess lol.

      It makes more sense if you think of semicolons like other programming languages like Java and C use it.

      foo();
      bar();
      

      But those languages allow foo(); bar(); as well. Then && works like a normal short circuited expression (with side effects).
