Not many people realize you can also go ++i and --i which is subtly different. In most cases the end effect is the same but not always. With ++i (prefixed) the value is computed before the expression is evaluated. The postfix version i++ is the opposite where the value is computed AFTER the expression is evaluated. This doesn't make any difference if you just go:
i++;
or
++i;
However if you try:
m = ((++i)*(j++)/5;
i will increment by 1 BEFORE the rest of the expression is evaluated. j will be incremented AFTER the expression is evaluated.
Good luck!

Awesome.. thanxs for the tip
more for my programming knowledge
