Some Invalid Increment/Decrement Operations

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
    int a = 10;
    int *p = &a;
    
    *p++; // Invalid Operation, precedence of "++" is heigher than "*"
    //(*p)++; //Recommended Expression
    printf("%d\n",*p);
    
    ++*p; // Valid Operation, But Not Recommended
    //++(*p); //Recommended Expression
    printf("%d\n",*p);
    
    *p--; // Invalid Operation, precedence of "--" is heigher than "*"
    //(*p)--; //Recommended Expression
    printf("%d\n",*p);
    
    --*p; // Valid Operation, But Not Recommended
    //--(*p); //Recommended Expression
    printf("%d\n",*p);

    return 0;
}

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
    int a = 10;
    int *p = &a;

    p++; // Invalid Operation, Increment the value of "p" (Memory Address)
    printf("%d\n",*p);
