Final answer:

The provided code snippet appears to contain errors and will not compile as written. It attempts to increment a string literal and uses the comma operator incorrectly which ultimately leads to a syntax error.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement provided is a C++ code snippet involving a declaration of a string and two instances of attempting to print using the cout stream. However, the statement seems to have typographical issues and its behavior may not be as intended. In a typical use of the cout object, one would expect to output strings, characters, or numbers. In the provided code, (" ")+1 appears to be an attempt to increment a string literal, which is not a valid operation in C++. Similarly, the use of the comma operator in (0,1) will result in the last operand being evaluated, which is the number 1. Therefore, the output of the statement cout << ( (" ")+1, ())<<"," << (0,1); is problematic and would result in a compilation error due to incorrect syntax and usage.
