What is x after “x = x++”?
int y = 1;
y = y++;
System.out.println("Value Of y :"+y);
The output is Value Of y : 1
I am incrementing the y and assigning that to "y" again. y++ hence first the value is used and then it increments the value. Hence it assign the value and it gets incremented. So I thought the output would be 2.
int y = 1;
int x = y++;
System.out.println("Value Of x :"+x);
System.out.println("Value Of y :"+y);
The output is:
Value Of x : 1
Value Of y : 2
In this case it is working. I mean the way I thought is correct.
Can any one please explain to me why?
