C++ should be called ++C
C++ should be called ++C
According to syntax postfix increment returns copy of unmodified variable (C++ == C), while prefix increment returns incremented variable (++C == C + 1).

++C would make the language totally irrelevant in alphanumeric listings of languages
After simply managing a point of sale system for a retail chain, I hate you for even suggesting this./s It is almost as bad as all the insane ideas about date notation. The only correct notation is YYYY/MM/DD.
ISO 8601 is good for computers, but as a human i prefer DD/MM/YYYY, which is more convenient for everyday use. USA format is abomination though.
Many people are ahead used to the DD.MM.YYYY format. They are also already totally ok with the hh:mm:ss format so apparently there’s no problem ascending or descending order. Inconsistency really bothers me, so we should just pick one and stick with it. Preferably the ISO style, if you ask me.
Nah, because when you write it it's just C, but when you come back later to check your code it's gotten bigger and more obfuscated.
But it's still C
I think ++C is going full ahead to D
Agreed. C is a char, and
++'C'results in'D'.
PHP should stand for “Pre Hypertext Processor”.
Instead of being a recursive acronym for “PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor”.

Have you ever tried sugar, or...
Only the syntactic kind
4 decades too late with this. You’re not the first.

If c = 1, then c++ = 2
#include <iostream> using namespace std;
int main() {
int i = 10;
cout << i++ << endl;
cout << i << endl;
}
postfix ++ increments the variable.
Postfix increments variable too, but as a side effect. in your code
cout << i++ << endl;prints 10 which means, that i++ returned copy of unincremented i.Yes c++ == c. That's the point Bjarne Stroustrup made. It is the C language but then it's better.
Nowadays they're not completely compatible. But originally it was a preprocessor that created the C equivalent to be compiled. You could write C++ that compiled with a C compiler as long as you didn't use the extra features.
First there was C
Then C+, and no one gave a shit, so they made C++
It's just C with stuff added to it twice.
double-plus-good
Then what about C++++, aka C#.
i give it a c-
The fediverse really is filled with programmers.... that nearly looks like math but the type I learned at school.
