Unexpected result

Posted by Kannappan on November 26, 2000 at 10:15 AM

I wrote a simple Java program as follows (using jdk1.2)

class test
{
public static void main(String[] args){
int x;
x=0;
x=x++;
System.out.println(x);
}

}
It is giving me an output of 0 instead of 1. Could any one figure it out
