Can assignment operators switch += to =+ and if so how dose it change the code

Question

Just asking a question

Answer 1

To everybody who enjoys so much reading their own sentence in a 'hot today' thread:

You'd learn a lot more if you actually READ a discussion before you just thoughtlessly add another half-baked guess like a dozen people did before you.

Answer 2

Have you tried this in a program?

That's the first thing you should do if you have this sort of question.

Answer 3

Try it with -= and =-.

Print out the value.

Tell us what you found.

Answer 4

Alyssa your links are irrelevant.

Answer 5

Do you know, how a regular assignment works?

With only = ?

(Sorry I'm a bit like one of these teachers right now who want you to read their mind. ^^)

Answer 6

You can += adds the together and changes value with the sum =+ changes value and makes the number a positive number or =- makes the num a negative number

Answer 7

You got it. 🙂

Answer 8

it can work

Answer 9

amen HonFu

Answer 10

Try and find out yourself. Do you have a computer?

Answer 11

Thank you I appreciate all the help

Answer 12

Yes but to be honest it didn't give me a error but I wasn't sure how it change the execution of the of the operation

Answer 13

Int num1 = 4 , num2 = 8
Num2 += num1
Gives output 12 I get that it changes num 2 to num2+num1 but the other way around gives both num1 and num2 the assignment 4

Answer 14

Try what I wrote.

Answer 15

Do you understand how it works?

Answer 16

Should I be looking at it like a algebraic problem

Answer 17

I think so, it assigns a value to a identifier

Answer 18

int x = 5
//x is a key 5 is the value
x-=2
// same as x=x-2 so x is now 3 because x=5-2=3
y=-2
// y is key with value of -2

Answer 19

Lost me on that one

Answer 20

Int x =5 , y = -7
y=+x out put for both x and y 5
X=+y out put for both x and y -7
So the only thing I can come up with is it acts as if the + is not there when it is on that side
