Yes, with respect to y, but after both examples, x would obviously have
the
value of x+1

so y=x++; would be y=x? because the incremented value hasn't been
returned,
while y=++x; would = x+1?
Thanks,

The postincrement and preincrement operators change the value they are
applied to.
X++ is not the same thing as x+1
X++ is the same thing as
X = x+1
The difference between postincrement and preincrement is that in post
increment, x++ returns the previous value of x, before it's
incremented, and
++x returns the newly incremented value of x, but both assign that
incremented value to x.

Subject: assigning values
Hi,
I have worked out that the following will assign 12 to x and 12 to y:
int x =11, y;
y = ++x;
So why is x incremented when we are assigning x to y?
Like for example the following wouldn't change x:
y =x+1;
So does ++ behave different to + and then a variable or number?
Sorry if this doesn't make a lot of sense.
Basically I am asking.
How come when using ++ x is incremented but when using x+1 x doesn't
change.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
