﻿# V700\. It is suspicious that variable is initialized through itself\. Consider inspecting the 'T foo \= foo \= x;' expression\.

The analyzer has detected an expression of the 'T foo \= foo \= X' pattern\. The variable being initialized is itself taking part in the assignment\. Unlike the issue diagnosed by the V573 rule, the foo variable here is initialized by an X expression; however, this code is very suspicious: the programmer should have most likely meant something else\.

Here is an example of incorrect code:

```cpp
int a = a = 3;
```

It's hard to say for sure what was actually meant here\. Probably the correct code should look as follows:

```cpp
int a = 3;
```

It is also possible that the programmer wanted to initialize the variable through assigning a value to another variable:

```cpp
int a = b = 3;
```
