When we think of the comma character we often think of it as a separator. It separates values in an CSV file, it separates items in lists, it may separate index values in multidimensional arrays (in other languages) and more. But in C++ an obscure way of using them was as an operator. The reason it never made it big as an operator and into the typical programming psyche is that largely it is seen as useless or some kind of "syntactic sugar". So in this article we try to show how it works, why it has a stigma and some possible uses for it that may prove useful at some point in your career going forward.
