In the C language ++ was a way to post increment a numbered variable.
IE i = 0;
i++;
now i == 1;
So that was the idea behind the ++ in C++ when moving from C. I guess the idea stuck when moving from C++ to C#

@pain0486 i hope everyone here on devRant knows this from before, as it's the way we upvote posts around here, and incrementing with ++ works in very many languages.

C++ makes sense...

C# was somebody looking at C++, crossing their eyes and tilting their head.
