First off, when you start a new thread, send a new e-mail. Don't reply to an
existing thread. Bad 'netiquette.
Preincrement (++i) increments before the operation. Postincrement increments
after.
Probably the most famous use of the postincrement operator is from Kernighan
and Ritchie's book "The C Programming Language":
void strcpy (char *s, char *t)
{
while (*s++ = *t++);
}
This copies a character from t to s, THEN increments s and t, THEN does the
boolean comparison. It's one of the most elegant pieces of C code I know.
Cordially,
Kerry Thompson
