An expression x++ would be equivalent to (x := x + 1).

  • It would have to be postfix only, to prevent ambiguity with +(+(x))
  • For maximum inconsistency with C, it should return the postincremented value

Cool, but gonna be very hard to do without rewriting the parser. (afaik) Python has no postfix operators normally.

Also, how are you gonna distinguish it from a+ +b?
