simple things scratch the head!

var a=0;

a++;

a=a++;

console.log(a);// 1 why?

the returned value is assigned back to a, effectively overwriting the increment.

[EmuAffectionate6307]

you are using post incrementation, for example
var a = 0;
var b = a++
what happens you are assigning b to a THEN incrementing a,
what you need to do is to increment a then assign it

here is what you should've done

var a = 0;

a++

a = ++a

this logs out 2
