Isn't the evaluated value different from the expression? i++ returns the value of i before increasing. i-=-1 would return the value after it has been increased. Wouldn't it be more correct to make it equal to ++i
If you're hell bend on achieving the goodness of
i++
equivalent you could wrap it up like this:(i-=-1,i-1)
We're talking C here of course.
