From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> The comma operator is a somewhat obscure C feature that is often used by mistake and can even cause unintentional code flow. That is why the `-Wcomma` option of clang was introduced: To identify unintentional uses of the comma operator. Intentional uses include situations where one wants to avoid curly brackets around multiple statements that need to be guarded by a condition. This is the case here, as the repetitive nature of the statements is easier to see for a human reader this way. To mark this usage as intentional, the return value of the statement before the comma needs to be cast to `void`, which we do here.
