Answer / shikhar

The answer given by preshit is absolutely correct...Lets
see how ,we have >>>
for(i=5;i>=0;i--)
Now we can write this all as :

//start of program

STEP 1 : for(i=5;i>=0;)
{
STEP 2 : prinf(i--);
STEP 3 : i--;
}
//end of program

TT : now the loop will start with i=5
when control reaches printf it firstly executes its
internal statement i.e i-- and then prints i-1(i.e 4) and
it Reduces i by 1.i becomes 3
NOW once again STEP 1 :go to TT

OUTPUT :
4
