Understanding the Behavior of i + ++i in D Language

Hello,
I'm working with a simple piece of code in the D language and
encountered a result that has left me puzzled. The code snippet
is as follows:
```
import std.stdio:writeln;
void main() {
int i = 5;
writeln("Result: ", i + ++i);
}
```
When I run this, it surprisingly outputs 11. I tried something
similar in C before and it gave me 12. I’m curious, why is there
a difference? How is i + ++i evaluated in D that it ends up
giving 11 instead of 12?
Is there something about operator precedence or evaluation order
in D that I'm missing? I'd really appreciate it if someone could
break it down for me or point me towards some resources to get a
better understanding of what's going on.
Thanks a bunch!
