=== Operators: Numeric

[[post-increment-operator]]
==== Post Increment

Use the `post increment operator '++'` to INCREASE the value of a numeric type
variable/field by `1`. An extra implicit cast is necessary to return the
promoted numeric type value to the original numeric type value of the
variable/field for the following types: `byte`, `short`, and `char`. If a
variable/field is read as part of an expression the value is loaded prior to the
increment.

*Errors*

* If the variable/field is a non-numeric type.

Use the `subtraction operator '-'` to SUBTRACT a right-hand side numeric type
value from a left-hand side numeric type value.  Rules for resultant overflow
and NaN values follow the JVM specification.

*Errors*
