evaluation order with increment operators

Is there any ambiguity in the following?

while (k < j) print B[++k]

Is it possible that k will be incremented before the while loop is checked?

It should not.  Yours should be no difference than

while (k < j)
print B[++k]

or

while (k < j) {
print B[++k]
}

If ++K happens before k < j then it should be wrong.

No.
