Incrementing pointer not working

Question

#include \"stdafx.h\" 
#include

Your code works fine till you reach the line

*a++;

As you know, C++ compiler will break this code of line as

*a = *(a+1);

That is, it will first increment address value of a and then assign the value to *a. But if you do,

*(a)++;

then you will get correct output, that is, 43.
