For example : int x = 1; if we write postfix : x = x ++; it's value doesn't change, because x gets it's value (x=1) before increasing it. x = ++x; in this case x gets the value after increasing (x = 2) it. If you use while loop for example : x = 1; while(x < 2){ x = x ++; } it causes an infinite loop. because the value of x doesn't change as I said. if you use ++x vice versa.
