Which is more efficient n=n+1 or n++?

Question

Whats the major difference between these statements as both of them do the same operations.

Answer 1

The second has two characters less.

Answer 2

Most compilers optimizes the code you write, and those two will generate the same assembly code. In that case, it would be more efficient to just write n++ or ++n than n=n+1.

Answer 3

Modern compilers generate the same assembly code hence practically its no difference, since its just an INC instruction.

Answer 4

Since the compiler selects the most efficient route of execution, the n=n+1 would be automatically converted to n++. There is no real difference between these as far as the compiler is concerned.

Answer 5

Both are same.... in terms of efficiency as both statements can be considered as having constant time complexity...

Answer 6

AFAIK n++.... Since there is increment and reassignment in n=n+1

Answer 7

both are the same but n++ is easy to write

Answer 8

They are the same but you should be careful about pre and post increment

Answer 9

With: n++ ;

You write less code and I think it's more intelligent way of code. 👊👊

Answer 10

n++ is more efficient bcoz there is least time to load, compile & output.

Answer 11

n++

Answer 12

According to 'c' and 'c++' pre and post decrement or increment operator is good because it feels handy with program
Many languages does not support 'n++' type of format like python..,we have to take care about them🙂

Answer 13

n++ Better then the other

Answer 14

As it takes less space

Answer 15

N=N+1 is efficient

Answer 16

You could also compare them with n+=1

Answer 17

both are same but n++ is better

Answer 18

n++ is most usefull and easy

Answer 19

n++

Answer 20

++n is the good habit to using in programming
