According to syntax postfix increment returns copy of unmodified variable (C++ == C), while prefix increment returns incremented variable (++C == C + 1).

Why not invent even more notations? We did YYYY.MM.DD at work.

Just please don't do yyyyMMdd with each field being optional and possibly one or two characters.

I personally do YYYY.MM.DD for all of my personal filing. Sue me.

Edit: personally, of course.
