What is the result of the following code snippet: let x = 10; let y = x++ + 5;?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for the outcome of a specific JavaScript code snippet, particularly how the increment operator works in this context and what the final value of variable 'y' will be after the computation.
Answer
y is 15 and x is 11.
The final answer is that y will be 15 and x will be 11.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is that y will be 15 and x will be 11.
More Information
In JavaScript, the expression x++ returns the current value of x before incrementing it. So y is assigned the value of x (10) plus 5, resulting in 15. Then x is incremented to 11.
Tips
A common mistake is confusing the behavior of x++ with ++x. The former uses the value before the increment, while the latter uses the value after the increment.
