Increment increases variable's value by "1", decrement decreases by "1". int a = 0 a++ Value of a == 1

@Vaibhav Jadhav In your example in both cases the result is 11. a=10 System.out.println(++a) result 11 a=10 System.out.println(a++) result 10

increment: i++ is the same as i=i+1; decrement: i-- is the same as i=i-1; u increase or decrease your variable by 1
