Increment and Decrement Operator

Increment Operator will increment the value by 1. Types of Increment operator:

Example 1: Post-Increment Operator.

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
	int a=10;
	a++;
	printf("Value = %d",a);
}

Value = 11

Example 2: Pre-Increment Operator.

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
	int a=10;
	++a;
	printf("Value = %d",a);
}

Value = 11

Example 3: Post-Decrement Operator.

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
	int a=10;
	a--;
	printf("Value = %d",a);
}

Value = 9

Example 4: Pre-Decrement Operator.

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
	int a=10;
	--a;
	printf("Value = %d",a);
}

Value = 9

Difference between Post-Increment and Pre-Increment Operator.

Example 5: Post-Increment Operator.

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
	int a=10, b;
	b = a++;
	printf("A = %d\n",a);
	printf("B = %d",b);
}

A = 11
B = 10

Example 6: Pre-Increment Operator.

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
	int a=10, b;
	b = ++a;
	printf("A = %d\n",a);
	printf("B = %d",b);
}

A = 11
B = 11

Exercise on Increment and Decrement Operator

Exercise 1:
