OK, makes sense. I think my use of the preincrement followed by mod stems from years-old habits of writing embedded software, where ++<var> would typically compile to a single instruction on the 8051 or similar where every clock cycle counted (and <var>=<var>+1 would not). I guess these days it’s a moot point :) —Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
