      {

  int a =10;

System.out.printf("%d %d\n",++a,a); //Prints 11 11

System.out.printf("%d %d\n",a++,a); //Prints 11 12

System.out.printf("%d %d\n",++a,++a); // Prints 13 14

System.out.printf("%d %d\n",a++,a++); // Prints 14 15

System.out.printf("%d %d\n",++a,a++); //Prints 17 17

System.out.printf("%d %d\n",a++,++a); // Prints 18 20
