Value is not incrementing

Question

In the following code the values of i is not incrementing. I am unable to understand such kind of behavior.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;
int main()
{
int i=5,*j;
j=&i;
*j++;
cout<<i<<" "<<j<<endl;
++*j;
cout<<i<<" "<<j<<endl;
return 0;
}

Answer 1

It’s because of operators precedence, see the table here:

http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/operator_precedence

++ has a higher precedence than dereferencing *

Answer 2

I understand ,but the second "++*j" is preincrement and should increment value of "i".so the final value of i should be 7 .
