<p>I've been learning PHP by reading all sorts of things on the web. I've trying to figure out what this is called so I can look it up and read about it and learn how it works. It's the "++" in the code I'm assuming counts up so that the codes knows when to do a new line. I not looking for corrections to this code I'm looking for what the "++" is called so I can look it up.</p>

<pre><code>$i = 0
if (++$i == 10) {
    echo "new line";
}
</code></pre>
