Why this code output is 3?

Question

int x=2; y=2; z;
if( ++×>2&&y--<2){
z=x+y;
System.out.print (z)}
else
System.out.print(x);

Answer 1

That's easy.
++x = 3 that is greater than 2. but second condition is y-- that is equals to 2 and it isn't smaller than 2. So it just prints x value that is equal to 3(after ++x it becomes 3)...

Answer 2

--y is equal to 1, not 2

Answer 3

why is --y equals to 2?

Answer 4

it says y--... first it check if y is smaller than 2(that is false ) and after decrease by one
