Why it throw error?

[gurpartap]

Write your question here.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char s[]="C++";
cout << s << endl;
*s++;
cout << s << endl;
return 0;
}

output:error: lvalue required as increment operand
 *s++;
   ^

Because *s++ is interpreted as *(s++). You can't increment s because it's an array.

And if you were trying to print out D++, try this:

(*s)++;
