Is using increment (operator++) on floats bad style?

Question

Is it considered \"bad style\" to use the increment operator (++) on floats? It compiles just fine but I find it smelly and counter-intuitive.

The question: In what

Answer 1

It's bad style. ++ and -- are intended to set an lvalue to its next or previous value, like the next or previous integer, the next or previous element in an array (for pointers), the next or previous element in a container (iterators), etc.

Next and previous values are not well-defined for floats. Do f += 1. explicitly.
