Post Increment doubt

#1

a=10;
int z=a–;
cout<<z<<endl;

why we are getting output for above code as same as when we do z=a++

#2

Hey @ayushtiwari12

int a=10; //initiaize a with 10
int z=a- -; // here we first initialize z with a and then do a-- so z becomes 10 and a becomes 9

int a=10; //initiaize a with 10
int z=a++;// similarlly here we first initialize z with a and then do a++so z becomes 10 and a becomes 11

So if u print a,then that will be different but z will be same.
If it was preincrement/decrement operators then z will be different.
