@priya, Generally printf evaluation starts from left to right.... so first a++ using post increments assign the value of 3rd %d to be 2 then a++gets evaluated , now a value is 3 2nd %d takes a value as 3 1st %d takes a value as 3
if it is a preincrement like ++a in the third place the output will be 3,3,3... got it i guess... Thanks, Kartheek.
