I believe that there is no difference
in this case. It is a common convention
to write i++, not ++i, but that's
just that, a common convention.
On the principle that
for(exp1; exp2; exp3) {
stmt(s)
}
is equivalent to
exp1
while (exp2) {
stmt(s)
exp3
}
the results of a -for- loop will not vary
as long as different exp3 have the same results.
In your case this is true of i++ and ++i
but I guess someone could come up with exp3
for which this was no longer true.
