a = 1 print(a++) //Output = 1 print(a) //Output = 2 a = 1 print(++a) // Output = 2 print (a) //Output = 2

In the final answer, in either pre incrementing or post incrementing, the final result is (x+1) if x is input. But, printf("x++"); gives x and printf("++x"); gives (x+1) as output .

it doesn't take place immediately. ...it is postponed to the next expression and not the print statement. suppose int b=5; int a=b++; cout <<a;//out put=5 but if c=++a; cout <<c;//out put=7
