Why doesn't changing the pre to the post increment at the iteration part of a for loop make a difference?

Question

Why does this

 int x = 2;
    for (int y =2; y>0;y--){
        System.out.println(x + \" \"+ y + \" \");
        x++;
    }

prints the s

Answer 1

in a loop, first initialization, then condition checking, then execution, after that increment/decrement. so pre/post increment/decrement does not affect the program code.
