Post increment operator not incrementing in for loop

Question

I\'m doing some research about Java and find this very confusing:

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i = i++) {
  System.err.print(\"hoo... \");
}

Answer 1

i++ will report the value of i, and THEN increment. This also means that you don't need to set i equal to i++, just change to

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
