@user2015669: Because by the time you use it in your println, it's already been incremented. The operator is in the for condition, so the for condition uses the old value. Then the body of the for is executed with a having the new value.

When the condition is being checked in the for part, a=0. But after it was checked, it was incremented to a=1. So it will print 1 and not 0.
