That's a little too simple.  You can alter a variable multiple times in
one statement as long as the two modifications are *sequenced*, for
example if they're separated by a comma operator.

In the code fragment in the subject line, the two occurrences of "++f"
are unsequenced, so the behavior is undefined.
