Thread: Modulo operation

Hello! I am not quite sure about the output of this program,meaning my calculation and the programs are diffrent.

public class test2 {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		char c = 'd';
 
	Out.println(++c % c--);
	}
}

Now the value of 'd' in the ASCII table is 100 so what I think is happening in the program(the print stament) is the value of d is increased by one and than % with 100.So it should be 101%100 which should print out 1.But the program prints out 0 suggestion it was 100%100.What am I missing here? I know the first one is a preincrement meaning the value of c will be increased but does the modulo operation have precedence or? Some clearification would be great, thanks!

It is an task from a test ,you are given such complicated and tricky codes and you have to guess what the print out will be, that is why.

Well, If you would to ask me I would say 101 left, 100 right. Left we have preincrement, and right we have post increment.

Yea i've figured it out.After the ++c the value of i becomes 101, making the value of i in i-- also 101 thus 101%101 = 0; The i--; will take place after this expression.
