++ mean you add +1 to your variable. now, for which do what, a simple example : //print x THEN add +1 Console.WriteLine(x++); //add +1 THEN print x Console.WriteLine(++x);

the x++ will be like your post paid mobile connection, pay after use. whereas the ++x is prepaid connection you need to pay before use. they follows the following order ++x : change then use x++ : use then change
