Thanks for the mail. You are correct, the example has a problem.
The correct fix is what Andy suggested, replacing i++ with ++i; that
is clearly what I meant to write but I suspect that my longtime habit
of using i++ when coding tripped me up. :-)
I will push the fix the repo shortly.
Manuel, if you read the leading text before that example, you'll see
that it is making the point to avoid order-of-evaluation problems. :-)
Thanks!
