No, idx is 2 in this case. Specification of C guarantees it. e.g.

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
        int n = 2, m;

        m = n++;
        printf("n: %d, m: %d\n", n, m);

        return 0;
}

if you execute the above program, you can see an output:
n: 3, m: 2

If the expression of increment is put before the incremented variable,
the assigned variable will be equal to the incremented result.
