a=2 b=a++ b= ? (why 2)😠😠

the answer is 'b=2' because first the value of 'a' is assigned to the variable 'b' then it is incremented. since at the time of assignment its value is 2 so result is "b=2"

Answer 3

it is important to understand the order of operations with the increment operator.

There are 2 versions of the increment operator:

$a++
++$a

there's one important a subtle difference between them.

$a++ executes the increment LAST inside the line of code.
++$a executes the increment FIRST inside the line of code.

example:

$a = 5

print($a++) // prints 5 since increment executes after print.

print($a) // prints 6

print (++$a) // prints 7 since increment executes before print.
