Assigning and incrementing a value during method call
increment, java, primitive
Solution
`i = i++` is like doing:
int old_i = i;
i = i + 1;
i = old_i;
What is actually happening is that the value of `i++` is the value of `i` before the increment happens, then `i` will get the value of.. `i`.
In one line `i++` will use the old value of `i` and then it will increment it.
Problem
Can anyone explain me why such call doesn't increment my `i` value ? ``` int i = 0; list.get(7 + (i = i++)); list.get(7 + (i = i++)); ``` it leaves `i=0` instead of increment by one at least such that in the second call it is 1.
