And both C and C++ not only have both a pre and post autoincrement variable using ++x and x++, they also have autodecrement operators using a minus sign such as --x and x-- and it can get pretty weird trying to figure out if some code is legal, let alone what it does, without parentheses. I mean what the heck does this do?
