Answer 2

The increment and decrement operators (++, --) increment and decrement numeric types by 1.
The operator can either precede or follow the variable, depending on whether you want the variable to be updated 'before' or 'after' the expression is evaluated.

• The prefix: increments the value of x,
  and then assigns it to y.
      int x = 5;
      int y = ++x;  // x is 6, y is 6

• The postfix: assigns the value of x to y,
  and then increments x.
      int x = 5;
      int y = x++;  // x is 6, y is 5

Answer 4

X++ is post increment and ++x is pre increment.X++ value is incremented after value assign or printed.++X value incremented before the value is printing....This is the difference...I hope you understand it..

Answer 5

x++ and ++x both are increment operator which are used to increase the value of a variable by 1,

there is a very slight difference between two.

In x++ the value of variable is printed first then it is incremented whereas in

++x the value is incremented first and then it is displayed.

hope u understood it.

Answer 6

++i means pre increment of i by 1
i++ means post increment of i by 1

That's it

Answer 7

In the operation x++ can perform at last and it perform the increment when the process Complete, it ready to move the next value of the variable based on that we given.

++x it perform the operation increment at the beginning of the process function.
It is the operation increasing the value of x then start the process
