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

    Yes c++ == c. That’s the point Bjarne Stroustrup made. It is the C language but then it’s better.

    Nowadays they’re not completely compatible. But originally it was a preprocessor that created the C equivalent to be compiled. You could write C++ that compiled with a C compiler as long as you didn’t use the extra features.
