C++ Brain Teasers: Exercise Your Mind

#include <iostream>
#include <type_traits>

int main()
{
    char char1 = 1;
    char char2 = 2;
    
    // True if the type of char1 + char2 is char
    std::cout << std::is_same_v<decltype(char1 + char2), char>;
}

Executed code to understand the output and gain insights into type promotion and usual arithmetic conversions.
