Prefix increment and decrement operators

pre-increment-expression
: ++unary-expression
pre-decrement-expression
: --unary-expression
The operand of a prefix increment or decrement operation must be an expression classified as a variable, a property access, or an indexer access. The result of the operation is a value of the same type as the operand.
If the operand of a prefix increment or decrement operation is a property or indexer access, the property or indexer must have both a get and a set accessor. If this is not the case, a compile-time error occurs.
Unary operator overload resolution (14.2.3) is applied to select a specific operator implementation. Predefined ++ and --operators exist for the following types: sbyte, byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong, char, float, double, decimal, and any enum type. The predefined ++ operators return the value produced by adding 1 to the operand, and the predefined --operators return the value produced by subtracting 1 from the operand.
The run-time processing of a prefix increment or decrement operation of the form ++x or --x consists of the following steps: If x is classified as a variable: x is evaluated to produce the variable. The selected operator is invoked with the value of x as its argument. The value returned by the operator is stored in the location given by the evaluation of x. The value returned by the operator becomes the result of the operation. If x is classified as a property or indexer access: The instance expression (if x is not static) and the argument list (if x is an indexer access) associated with x are evaluated, and the results are used in the subsequent get and set accessor invocations. The get accessor of x is invoked. The selected operator is invoked with the value returned by the get accessor as its argument. The set accessor of x is invoked with the value returned by the operator as its value argument. The value returned by the operator becomes the result of the operation.
The ++ and --operators also support postfix notation (14.5.9). The result of x++ or x--is the value of x before the operation, whereas the result of ++x or --x is the value of x after the operation. In either case, x itself has the same value after the operation.
An operator ++ or operator --implementation can be invoked using either postfix or prefix notation. It is not possible to have separate operator implementations for the two notations.
