    my understanding…(I’m very new and trying to learn) - is that there would be no difference if that statement (i++; or ++i;) were used alone on a line…am I correct in this?

      If both were the only statement, then yes they are equivalent because nothing is being done with the returned value either way. The difference only really matters if you’re using the returned value.
