TIL14 - JS - Mathematical Assignment Operators

1. Mathematical Assignment Operators

• +=
• -=
• *=
• /=

These assignment operators update and assign with a single operator

ex)

let x = 10;
x += 2;
console.log(x);
// Prints 12.

*In the above example, the initial variable x with value 10 is added by 2 and this new value is assigned as the updated value for the variable x

2. Increment/Decrement Operators

• ++
• --

These work similarly to the 4 mathematical assignment operators
The variable value is increased by 1 or decreased by 1 and this is assgined as the new value

ex)

let x = 10;
x ++;
console.log(x);
// Prints 11
