comp.lang.c FAQ list · Question 3.12a

Q: What's the difference between ++i and i++?


A: If your C book doesn't explain, get a better one. Briefly: ++i adds one to the stored value of i and ``returns'' the new, incremented value to the surrounding expression; i++ adds one to i but returns the prior, unincremented value.
