What is this type of C statement called?

In C the following is valid code:

if ((a, a+b, a*b) >= 0) {
    ....
}

Does the (a, a+b, a*b) part have a special name?

x, y is called a comma expression.

, is called the comma operator in C and (x, y, z) is the same as ((x, y), z).

It must not be confused with the comma that separates function arguments and which is not the comma operator.
