C Compound Assignment

  • 6 contributors

The compound-assignment operators combine the simple-assignment operator with another binary operator. Compound-assignment operators perform the operation specified by the additional operator, then assign the result to the left operand. For example, a compound-assignment expression such as

expression1 += expression2

can be understood as

expression1 = expression1 + expression2

However, the compound-assignment expression is not equivalent to the expanded version because the compound-assignment expression evaluates expression1 only once, while the expanded version evaluates expression1 twice: in the addition operation and in the assignment operation.

The operands of a compound-assignment operator must be of integral or floating type. Each compound-assignment operator performs the conversions that the corresponding binary operator performs and restricts the types of its operands accordingly. The addition-assignment ( += ) and subtraction-assignment ( -= ) operators can also have a left operand of pointer type, in which case the right-hand operand must be of integral type. The result of a compound-assignment operation has the value and type of the left operand.

In this example, a bitwise-inclusive-AND operation is performed on n and MASK , and the result is assigned to n . The manifest constant MASK is defined with a #define preprocessor directive.

Get started with Spring and Spring Boot, through the Learn Spring course:

1. overview.

In this tutorial, we’ll have a look at Java compound operators, their types and how Java evaluates them.

We’ll also explain how implicit casting works.

2. Compound Assignment Operators

An assignment operator is a binary operator that assigns the result of the right-hand side to the variable on the left-hand side. The simplest is the “=” assignment operator:

This statement declares a new variable x , assigns x the value of 5 and returns 5 .

Compound Assignment Operators are a shorter way to apply an arithmetic or bitwise operation and to assign the value of the operation to the variable on the left-hand side.

For example, the following two multiplication statements are equivalent, meaning  a and b will have the same value:

It’s important to note that the variable on the left-hand of a compound assignment operator must be already declared. In other words,  compound operators can’t be used to declare a new variable.

Like the “=” assignment operator, compound operators return the assigned result of the expression:

Both x and y will hold the value 3 .

The assignment (x+=2) does two things: first, it adds 2 to the value of the variable x , which becomes  3;  second, it returns the value of the assignment, which is also 3 .

3. Types of Compound Assignment Operators

Java supports 11 compound assignment operators. We can group these into arithmetic and bitwise operators.

Let’s go through the arithmetic operators and the operations they perform:

  • Incrementation: +=
  • Decrementation: -=
  • Multiplication: *=
  • Division: /=
  • Modulus: %=

Then, we also have the bitwise operators:

  • AND, binary: &=
  • Exclusive OR, binary: ^=
  • Inclusive OR, binary: |=
  • Left Shift, binary: <<=
  • Right Shift, binary: >>=
  • Shift right zero fill: >>>=

Let’s have a look at a few examples of these operations:

As we can see here, the syntax to use these operators is consistent.

4. Evaluation of Compound Assignment Operations

There are two ways Java evaluates the compound operations.

First, when the left-hand operand is not an array, then Java will, in order:

  • Verify the operand is a declared variable
  • Save the value of the left-hand operand
  • Evaluate the right-hand operand
  • Perform the binary operation as indicated by the compound operator
  • Convert the result of the binary operation to the type of the left-hand variable (implicit casting)
  • Assign the converted result to the left-hand variable

Next, when the left-hand operand is an array, the steps to follow are a bit different:

  • Verify the array expression on the left-hand side and throw a NullPointerException  or  ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException if it’s incorrect
  • Save the array element in the index
  • Check if the array component selected is a primitive type or reference type and then continue with the same steps as the first list, as if the left-hand operand is a variable.

If any step of the evaluation fails, Java doesn’t continue to perform the following steps.

Let’s give some examples related to the evaluation of these operations to an array element:

As we’d expect, this will throw a  NullPointerException .

However, if we assign an initial value to the array:

We would get rid of the NullPointerException, but we’d still get an  ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException , as the index used is not correct.

If we fix that, the operation will be completed successfully:

Finally, the x variable will be 6 at the end of the assignment.

5. Implicit Casting

One of the reasons compound operators are useful is that not only they provide a shorter way for operations, but also implicitly cast variables.

Formally, a compound assignment expression of the form:

is equivalent to:

E1 – (T)(E1 op E2)

where T is the type of E1 .

Let’s consider the following example:

Let’s review why the last line won’t compile.

Java automatically promotes smaller data types to larger data ones, when they are together in an operation, but will throw an error when trying to convert from larger to smaller types .

So, first,  i will be promoted to long and then the multiplication will give the result 10L. The long result would be assigned to i , which is an int , and this will throw an error.

This could be fixed with an explicit cast:

Java compound assignment operators are perfect in this case because they do an implicit casting:

This statement works just fine, casting the multiplication result to int and assigning the value to the left-hand side variable, i .

6. Conclusion

In this article, we looked at compound operators in Java, giving some examples and different types of them. We explained how Java evaluates these operations.

Finally, we also reviewed implicit casting, one of the reasons these shorthand operators are useful.

Assignment operators.

Assignment operators modify the value of the object.

[ edit ] Definitions

Copy assignment replaces the contents of the object a with a copy of the contents of b ( b is not modified). For class types, this is performed in a special member function, described in copy assignment operator .

For non-class types, copy and move assignment are indistinguishable and are referred to as direct assignment .

Compound assignment replace the contents of the object a with the result of a binary operation between the previous value of a and the value of b .

[ edit ] Assignment operator syntax

The assignment expressions have the form

  • ↑ target-expr must have higher precedence than an assignment expression.
  • ↑ new-value cannot be a comma expression, because its precedence is lower.

[ edit ] Built-in simple assignment operator

For the built-in simple assignment, the object referred to by target-expr is modified by replacing its value with the result of new-value . target-expr must be a modifiable lvalue.

The result of a built-in simple assignment is an lvalue of the type of target-expr , referring to target-expr . If target-expr is a bit-field , the result is also a bit-field.

[ edit ] Assignment from an expression

If new-value is an expression, it is implicitly converted to the cv-unqualified type of target-expr . When target-expr is a bit-field that cannot represent the value of the expression, the resulting value of the bit-field is implementation-defined.

If target-expr and new-value identify overlapping objects, the behavior is undefined (unless the overlap is exact and the type is the same).

In overload resolution against user-defined operators , for every type T , the following function signatures participate in overload resolution:

For every enumeration or pointer to member type T , optionally volatile-qualified, the following function signature participates in overload resolution:

For every pair A1 and A2 , where A1 is an arithmetic type (optionally volatile-qualified) and A2 is a promoted arithmetic type, the following function signature participates in overload resolution:

[ edit ] Built-in compound assignment operator

The behavior of every built-in compound-assignment expression target-expr   op   =   new-value is exactly the same as the behavior of the expression target-expr   =   target-expr   op   new-value , except that target-expr is evaluated only once.

The requirements on target-expr and new-value of built-in simple assignment operators also apply. Furthermore:

  • For + = and - = , the type of target-expr must be an arithmetic type or a pointer to a (possibly cv-qualified) completely-defined object type .
  • For all other compound assignment operators, the type of target-expr must be an arithmetic type.

In overload resolution against user-defined operators , for every pair A1 and A2 , where A1 is an arithmetic type (optionally volatile-qualified) and A2 is a promoted arithmetic type, the following function signatures participate in overload resolution:

For every pair I1 and I2 , where I1 is an integral type (optionally volatile-qualified) and I2 is a promoted integral type, the following function signatures participate in overload resolution:

For every optionally cv-qualified object type T , the following function signatures participate in overload resolution:

Exploring Java Compound Assignment Operators: Enhancing Code Efficiency

Introduction.

Java, a robust programming language, offers a range of features that streamline and optimize coding practices. Among these features are compound assignment operators, a set of operators that combine a simple arithmetic operation with assignment. In this article, we delve into the nuances of Java compound assignment operators, exploring how they enhance code efficiency and readability. This is an essential read for Java developers looking to refine their coding techniques.

What are Compound Assignment Operators?

Compound assignment operators in Java combine two operations: an arithmetic operation (like addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division) and an assignment. These operators provide a shorthand way of updating the value of a variable. For example, the operation a = a + 5 can be succinctly expressed as a += 5 . Discover more about these operators at the official Java documentation .

List of Java Compound Assignment Operators

  • Syntax: a += b is equivalent to a = a + b .
  • Use Case: Commonly used in loops or to increment values.
  • More Info: Java Addition Assignment Operator
  • Syntax: a -= b is equivalent to a = a - b .
  • Use Case: Used for decrementing values or subtracting one variable from another.
  • Further Reading: Understanding Subtraction Assignment
  • Syntax: a *= b translates to a = a * b .
  • Application: Frequently seen in scaling values.
  • Learn More: Java Multiplication Assignment Operator
  • Syntax: a /= b means a = a / b .
  • Usage: Common in mathematical computations involving division.
  • Detailed Explanation: Java Division Assignment Operator
  • Syntax: a %= b is the same as a = a % b .
  • Purpose: Useful in scenarios requiring modulus operation, like finding remainders.
  • Additional Info: Java Modulus Assignment Operator

Advantages of Using Compound Assignment Operators

  • Enhanced Readability: By reducing the verbosity of expressions, these operators make the code more readable and concise.
  • Less Error-Prone: They minimize the chances of errors, especially in complex expressions.
  • Performance Optimization: These operators can sometimes lead to more optimized bytecode, making the program slightly more efficient.

Java’s compound assignment operators are a powerful tool in a developer’s toolkit, simplifying code and improving readability. By understanding and utilizing these operators, Java programmers can write more efficient and cleaner code.

Now that we've talked about operators. Let's talk about something called the compound assignment operator and I'm going make one little change here in case you're wondering if you ever want to have your console take up the entire window you come up to the top right-hand side here you can undock it into a separate window and you can see that it takes up the entire window.

large

So just a little bit more room now.

Additionally, I have one other thing I'm going to show you in the show notes. I'm going to give you access to this entire set of assignment operators but we'll go through a few examples here. I'm going to use the entire window just to make it a little bit easier to see.

Let's talk about what assignment is. Now we've been using assignment ever since we started writing javascript code. You're probably pretty used to it. Assignment is saying something like var name and then setting up a name

And that is assignment the equals represents assignment.

Now javascript gives us the ability to have the regular assignment but also to have that assignment perform tasks. So for example say that you want to add items up so say that we want to add up a total set of grades to see the total number of scores. I can say var sum and assign it equal to zero.

And now let's create some grades.

I'm going to say var gradeOne = 100.

and then var gradeTwo = 80.

Now with both of these items in place say that we wanted to add these if you wanted to just add both of them together you definitely could do something like sum = (gradeOne + gradeTwo); and that would work.

However, one thing I want to show you is, there are many times where you don't have gradeOne or gradeTwo in a variable. You may have those stored in a database and then you're going to loop through that full set of records. And so you need to be able to add them on the fly. And so that's what a compound assignment operator can do.

Let's use one of the more basic ones which is to have the addition assignment.

Now you can see that sum is equal to 100.

Then if I do

If we had 100 grades we could simply add them just like that.

Essentially what this is equal to is it's a shorthand for saying something like

sum = sum + whatever the next one is say, that we had a gradeThree, it would be the same as doing that. So it's performing assignment, but it also is performing an operation. That's the reason why it's called a compound assignment operator.

Now in addition to having the ability to sum items up, you could also do the same thing with the other operators. In fact literally, every one of the operators that we just went through you can use those in order to do this compound assignment. Say that you wanted to do multiplication you could do sum astrix equals and then gradeTwo and now you can see it equals fourteen thousand four hundred.

This is that was the exact same as doing sum = whatever the value of sum was times gradeTwo. That gives you the exact same type of process so that is how you can use the compound assignment operators. And if you reference the guide that is included in the show notes. You can see that we have them for each one of these from regular equals all the way through using exponents.

Then for right now don't worry about the bottom items. These are getting into much more advanced kinds of fields like bitwise operators and right and left shift assignments. So everything you need to focus on is actually right at the top for how we're going to be doing this. This is something that you will see in a javascript code. I wanted to include it, so when you see it you're not curious about exactly what's happening.

It's a great shorthand syntax for whenever you want to do assignment but also perform an operation at the same time.

Compound Assignment Operators in C++

The compound assignment operators are specified in the form e1 op= e2, where e1 is a modifiable l-value not of const type and e2 is one of the following −

  • An arithmetic type
  • A pointer, if op is + or –

The e1 op= e2 form behaves as e1 = e1 op e2, but e1 is evaluated only once.

The following are the compound assignment operators in C++ −

Let's have a look at an example using some of these operators −

This will give the output −

Note that Compound assignment to an enumerated type generates an error message. If the left operand is of a pointer type, the right operand must be of a pointer type or it must be a constant expression that evaluates to 0. If the left operand is of an integral type, the right operand must not be of a pointer type.

Java Compound Assignment Operators

Java programming tutorial index.

Java provides some special Compound Assignment Operators , also known as Shorthand Assignment Operators . It's called shorthand because it provides a short way to assign an expression to a variable.

This operator can be used to connect Arithmetic operator with an Assignment operator.

For example, you write a statement:

In Java, you can also write the above statement like this:

There are various compound assignment operators used in Java:

While writing a program, Shorthand Operators saves some time by changing the large forms into shorts; Also, these operators are implemented efficiently by Java runtime system compared to their equivalent large forms.

+= operator

  • Add operation.
  • Assignment of the result of add operation.
  • Statement i+=2 is equal to i=i+2 , hence 2 will be added to the value of i, which gives us 4.
  • Finally, the result of addition, 4 is assigned back to i, updating its original value from 2 to 4.

Example with += operator

-= operator.

  • Subtraction operation.
  • Assignment of the result of subtract operation.
  • Statement i-=2 is equal to i=i-2 , hence 2 will be subtracted from the value of i, which gives us 0.
  • Finally, the result of subtraction i.e. 0 is assigned back to i, updating its value to 0.

Example with -= operator

*= operator.

  • Multiplication operation.
  • Assignment of the result of multiplication operation.
  • Statement i*=2 is equal to i=i*2 , hence 2 will be multiplied with the value of i, which gives us 4.
  • Finally, the result of multiplication, 4 is assigned back to i, updating its value to 4.

Example with *= operator

/= operator.

  • Division operation.
  • Assignment of the result of division operation.
  • Statement i/=2 is equal to i=i/2 , hence 4 will be divided by the value of i, which gives us 2.
  • Finally, the result of division i.e. 2 is assigned back to i, updating its value from 4 to 2.

compound assignment programming

Assignment operators are used for assigning value to a variable. The left side operand of the assignment operator is a variable and right side operand of the assignment operator is a value. The value on the right side must be of the same data-type of the variable on the left side otherwise the compiler will raise an error.

Different types of assignment operators are shown below:

1. “=”: This is the simplest assignment operator. This operator is used to assign the value on the right to the variable on the left. Example:

2. “+=” : This operator is combination of ‘+’ and ‘=’ operators. This operator first adds the current value of the variable on left to the value on the right and then assigns the result to the variable on the left. Example:

If initially value stored in a is 5. Then (a += 6) = 11.

3. “-=” This operator is combination of ‘-‘ and ‘=’ operators. This operator first subtracts the value on the right from the current value of the variable on left and then assigns the result to the variable on the left. Example:

If initially value stored in a is 8. Then (a -= 6) = 2.

4. “*=” This operator is combination of ‘*’ and ‘=’ operators. This operator first multiplies the current value of the variable on left to the value on the right and then assigns the result to the variable on the left. Example:

If initially value stored in a is 5. Then (a *= 6) = 30.

5. “/=” This operator is combination of ‘/’ and ‘=’ operators. This operator first divides the current value of the variable on left by the value on the right and then assigns the result to the variable on the left. Example:

If initially value stored in a is 6. Then (a /= 2) = 3.

Below example illustrates the various Assignment Operators:

1.5. Compound Assignment Operators ¶

Compound assignment operators are shortcuts that do a math operation and assignment in one step. For example, x += 1 adds 1 to the current value of x and assigns the result back to x . It is the same as x = x + 1 . This pattern is possible with any operator put in front of the = sign, as seen below. If you need a mnemonic to remember whether the compound operators are written like += or =+ , just remember that the operation ( + ) is done first to produce the new value which is then assigned ( = ) back to the variable. So it’s operator then equal sign: += .

Since changing the value of a variable by one is especially common, there are two extra concise operators ++ and -- , also called the plus-plus or increment operator and minus-minus or decrement operator that set a variable to one greater or less than its current value.

Thus x++ is even more concise way to write x = x + 1 than the compound operator x += 1 . You’ll see this shortcut used a lot in loops when we get to them in Unit 4. Similarly, y-- is a more concise way to write y = y - 1 . These shortcuts only exist for + and - as they don’t really make sense for other operators.

If you’ve heard of the programming language C++, the name is an inside joke that C, an earlier language which C++ is based on, had been incremented or improved to create C++.

Here’s a table of all the compound arithmetic operators and the extra concise incremend and decrement operators and how they relate to fully written out assignment expressions. You can run the code below the table to see these shortcut operators in action!

Run the code below to see what the ++ and shorcut operators do. Click on the Show Code Lens button to trace through the code and the variable values change in the visualizer. Try creating more compound assignment statements with shortcut operators and work with a partner to guess what they would print out before running the code.

If you look at real-world Java code, you may occassionally see the ++ and -- operators used before the name of the variable, like ++x rather than x++ . That is legal but not something that you will see on the AP exam.

Putting the operator before or after the variable only changes the value of the expression itself. If x is 10 and we write, System.out.println(x++) it will print 10 but aftewards x will be 11. On the other hand if we write, System.out.println(++x) , it will print 11 and afterwards the value will be 11.

In other words, with the operator after the variable name, (called the postfix operator) the value of the variable is changed after evaluating the variable to get its value. And with the operator before the variable (the prefix operator) the value of the variable in incremented before the variable is evaluated to get the value of the expression.

But the value of x after the expression is evaluated is the same in either case: one greater than what it was before. The -- operator works similarly.

The AP exam will never use the prefix form of these operators nor will it use the postfix operators in a context where the value of the expression matters.

1-5-2: What are the values of x, y, and z after the following code executes?

  • x = -1, y = 1, z = 4
  • This code subtracts one from x, adds one to y, and then sets z to to the value in z plus the current value of y.
  • x = -1, y = 2, z = 3
  • x = -1, y = 2, z = 2
  • x = 0, y = 1, z = 2
  • x = -1, y = 2, z = 4

1-5-3: What are the values of x, y, and z after the following code executes?

  • x = 6, y = 2.5, z = 2
  • This code sets x to z * 2 (4), y to y divided by 2 (5 / 2 = 2) and z = to z + 1 (2 + 1 = 3).
  • x = 4, y = 2.5, z = 2
  • x = 6, y = 2, z = 3
  • x = 4, y = 2.5, z = 3
  • x = 4, y = 2, z = 3

1.5.1. Code Tracing Challenge and Operators Maze ¶

Use paper and pencil or the question response area below to trace through the following program to determine the values of the variables at the end.

Code Tracing is a technique used to simulate a dry run through the code or pseudocode line by line by hand as if you are the computer executing the code. Tracing can be used for debugging or proving that your program runs correctly or for figuring out what the code actually does.

Trace tables can be used to track the values of variables as they change throughout a program. To trace through code, write down a variable in each column or row in a table and keep track of its value throughout the program. Some trace tables also keep track of the output and the line number you are currently tracing.

Trace through the following code:

1-5-4: Write your trace table for x, y, and z here showing their results after each line of code.

After doing this challenge, play the Operators Maze game . See if you and your partner can get the highest score!

1.5.2. Summary ¶

Compound assignment operators ( += , -= , *= , /= , %= ) can be used in place of the assignment operator.

The increment operator ( ++ ) and decrement operator ( -- ) are used to add 1 or subtract 1 from the stored value of a variable. The new value is assigned to the variable.

The use of increment and decrement operators in prefix form (e.g., ++x ) and inside other expressions (i.e., arr[x++] ) is outside the scope of this course and the AP Exam.

  • Give to HDS

Graduate Profile: Ariella Gayotto Hohl, MDiv '24

Ariella Gayotto Hohl, MDiv '24

How I've Changed  

HDS is where I learned about the power of love. It started when I suddenly lost my father, the greatest love of my life, right before my third round of finals here. The impact of that loss while being immersed in scripture, faith, and community unlocked a painful but incredibly meaningful part of my life. I saw myself surrounded by so much care, I was given permission to feel and work through the hardest time of my life in my assignments and classes. I am coming out with a lot more than a Master of Divinity and a Certificate in Religion and Public Life. I became an artist here. A filmmaker, a published writer. I became a better friend and partner. A better sister, daughter, and aunt. A better ally to myself. It all emanated from how my grief taught me about how I was loved and how I want to love others. And that is a lesson I carry with me every day. 

Memorable Moment 

The day my father died, I texted one of my best friends, Alyjan Daya (MTS '23) and told him what had happened. It was the start of Eid al-Fitr, the end of Ramadan. He asked if he could come over. Once I opened the door, not only was Alyjan there but what felt like the entire HDS Muslim community followed him into my small Harvard housing living room. They had all come straight from iftar at SOCH to my apartment. They all prayed with me, held my hand, and visibly felt my pain with me. I will never forget that. 

Favorite Class or Professor 

Dr. Hussein Rashid was the professor and mentor who had the greatest impact in my time at HDS. Even though we only met in my last year here, he quickly became my advisor, adoptive father and one of the most important people in my life. At a time of so much loss, he made me feel that what I had to say was significant and gave me the confidence (and the push!) to do more in one year than I even thought would be possible. He took me in as a daughter, student, and collaborator so generously. Not only have I become a better scholar through him, he also has made me a better Muslim by leading by example and being radically inclusive. 

Message of Thanks  

Sigh. A huge smile of gratitude just burst out of me as I think of the people I am about to mention. My dear friends, Alyjan, Sana, Fawaz, and Zehra. You were by my side physically, virtually, and spiritually through the hardest moment of my life. Your generosity towards me made me become more generous with myself. Knowing you exist made me realize that we don't always need to find community in big spaces of worship. That having four people that truly get you can be more valuable than 400 others who might not. My teachers, Professors Nurhaizatul Jamil, Rahina Muazu, Joyhanna Yoo Garza, Brandon Thomas Crowley. You were so kind to me. You made me feel like I had something important to say. And when my world fell apart, you made me feel enough in your classroom. The entire Religion and Public Life office, especially Hussein Rashid, Susie Hayward, Diane Moore, and Reem Atassi. Being part of RPL was hands down the best part of being at HDS. I owe a big chunk of my career today to your work, support, and kindness. Alex Kronemer (HDS '85) - I was meant to be your intern and (lo and behold!) you gave the opportunity (and huge responsibility) to star in your upcoming national broadcast production, "Islam's Greatest Love Stories." You are one of the kindest, genuinely good people I know. More than a career, you gave me a family, and that is more than I could ever have dreamed of. And last but not least - Drema Bowers, our assistant director for student support. If it wasn't for her, I would not have finished this degree. I will never forget that. 

Future Plans 

In my career, to keep serving my community through film as Assistant Producer at Unity Productions Foundation with my director, friend, and mentor Alex Kronemer. At home, to slow down, be present with my family and enjoy being alive. In my heart, to keep dreaming of a free Palestine.

Texas' women's basketball SEC schedule includes South Carolina twice, Kim Mulkey in Austin

compound assignment programming

For a while now, Texas' women's basketball team has known it will be playing in the Southeastern Conference starting in 2024. Now the Longhorns know where they'll be playing their new SEC foes.

The SEC announced all home and road designations for this upcoming season's league games Tuesday. Texas joins the conference this summer after spending the past 27 seasons in the Big 12 . Dates, times and television information for games will be announced later.

The SEC will have 16 teams. Texas is set to play every other conference team at least once. Defending national champion South Carolina is the only team the Longhorns will play both at home and on the road.

In addition to South Carolina, Texas will play Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, LSU, Missouri, Tennessee and Vanderbilt in Austin at Moody Center. Texas and Tennessee have a long history together, but the two programs last met in 2021. LSU is notably led by Kim Mulkey, who previously clashed with the Longhorns while she was coaching in the Big 12 at Baylor from 2000-21.

Texas will travel to Auburn, Georgia, Kentucky, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Texas A&M and fellow SEC newcomer Oklahoma. The Mississippi State and A&M trips will be homecomings for UT coach Vic Schaefer, who led the Mississippi State program from 2012-20 and won a national championship while working on A&M's coaching staff in 2011.

During the 2024-25 season, UT will also reunite with ex-leading scorer Aliyah Matharu when Florida comes to town and all-conference forward DeYona Gaston when it heads to Auburn . The Alabama-Texas showdown at Moody Center will be a rematch of an NCAA tournament game that took place at the same location this past March .

An Elite Eight team this past season, Texas has not yet finalized the nonconference schedule. Schaefer recently told the American-Statesman that UT will open the season against Michigan in Las Vegas and that a road trip to DePaul has been planned.

Texas announced earlier this week that season tickets are now on sale.

  1. C Compound Assignment

    The compound-assignment operators combine the simple-assignment operator with another binary operator. Compound-assignment operators perform the operation specified by the additional operator, then assign the result to the left operand. For example, a compound-assignment expression such as. expression1 += expression2. can be understood as.

  2. Compound assignment operators in Java

    The following are all possible assignment operator in java: 1. += (compound addition assignment operator) 2. -= (compound subtraction assignment operator) 3. *= (compound multiplication assignment operator) 4. /= (compound division assignment operator) 5. %= (compound modulo assignment operator)

  3. What Is a Compound-Assignment Operator?

    To assign the result of an addition operation to a variable using the standard syntax: But use a compound-assignment operator to effect the same outcome with the simpler syntax: Compound assignment operators provide a shorter syntax to assign the results of the arithmetic and bitwise operators.

  4. Java Compound Operators

    Compound Assignment Operators. An assignment operator is a binary operator that assigns the result of the right-hand side to the variable on the left-hand side. The simplest is the "=" assignment operator: int x = 5; This statement declares a new variable x, assigns x the value of 5 and returns 5. Compound Assignment Operators are a shorter ...

  5. Augmented assignment

    Augmented assignment (or compound assignment) is the name given to certain assignment operators in certain programming languages (especially those derived from C).An augmented assignment is generally used to replace a statement where an operator takes a variable as one of its arguments and then assigns the result back to the same variable. A simple example is x += 1 which is expanded to x = x + 1.

  6. Compound Assignment Operators

    In programming we often update the values of variables using statements such as: i = i + 1; fac = fac * i; num = num - 1; These common coding tasks, where a certain operation (i.e. addition, subtraction, etc.) is being done to one variable itself (so the variable appears on both sides of the assignment operation), can be written in a shorthand ...

  7. Assignment operators

    for assignments to class type objects, the right operand could be an initializer list only when the assignment is defined by a user-defined assignment operator. removed user-defined assignment constraint. CWG 1538. C++11. E1 ={E2} was equivalent to E1 = T(E2) ( T is the type of E1 ), this introduced a C-style cast. it is equivalent to E1 = T{E2}

  8. Java Compound Assignment Operators (With Examples)

    Java Program With Compound Assignment Operators; Introduction. Efficiency and readability often go hand in hand in programming. As developers, we constantly strive to strike a balance between concise code and code that is easy to understand and maintain.

  9. Compound Assignment With Augmented Addition

    Compound Assignment With Augmented Addition. In programming, it is common to use assignments to modify the contents of a variable. Remember that everything to the right of the equals sign is evaluated first, so we can say: myVar = myVar + 5; to add 5 to myVar. Since this is such a common pattern, there are operators which do both a mathematical ...

  10. PDF Compound assignment operators

    The Java language specification says that: The compound assignment E1 op= E2 is equivalent to [i.e. is syntactic sugar for] E1 = (T) ((E1) op (E2)) where T is the type of E1, except that E1 is evaluated only once. We note two important points: The expression is cast to the type of E1 before the assignment is made (the cast is in red above) E1 ...

  11. Assignment Operators In C++

    In C++, the assignment operator forms the backbone of many algorithms and computational processes by performing a simple operation like assigning a value to a variable. It is denoted by equal sign ( = ) and provides one of the most basic operations in any programming language that is used to assign some value to the variables in C++ or in other ...

  12. Compound Assignment Operator in Java

    The compound assignment operator is the combination of more than one operator. It includes an assignment operator and arithmetic operator or bitwise operator. The specified operation is performed between the right operand and the left operand and the resultant assigned to the left operand. Generally, these operators are used to assign results ...

  13. Exploring Java Compound Assignment Operators: Enhancing Code Efficiency

    Java, a robust programming language, offers a range of features that streamline and optimize coding practices.

  14. Guide to Compound Assignment Operators in JavaScript

    And so that's what a compound assignment operator can do. Let's use one of the more basic ones which is to have the addition assignment. sum += gradeOne; // 100. Now you can see that sum is equal to 100. Then if I do. sum += gradeTwo; // 180. If we had 100 grades we could simply add them just like that.

  15. Compound Assignment Operator in C++

    Compound Assignment Operator Example: Now we take another example: int x = 3, y = 4, z = 2; int p = 1; In some program we have to perform many operations on a single variable, so at that time we can use compound assignment. p *= x; — (i) p *= y; — (ii) p -= x + y + z; — (iii) Here In the 1st statement, we are performing multiplication ...

  16. 1.5. Compound Assignment Operators

    Compound Assignment Operators — CS Java. 1.5. Compound Assignment Operators ¶. Compound assignment operators are shortcuts that do a math operation and assignment in one step. For example, x += 1 adds 1 to x and assigns the sum to x. It is the same as x = x + 1. This pattern is possible with any operator put in front of the = sign, as seen ...

  17. Compound Assignment Operators in C++

    The compound assignment operators are specified in the form e1 op= e2, where e1 is a modifiable l-value not of const type and e2 is one of the following −. The e1 op= e2 form behaves as e1 = e1 op e2, but e1 is evaluated only once. The following are the compound assignment operators in C++ −. Multiply the value of the first operand by the ...

  18. c

    Advantage of using compound assignment. There is a disadvantage too. Consider the effect of types. long long exp1 = 20; int b=INT_MAX; // All additions use `long long` math. exp1 = exp1 + 10 + b; 10 + b addition below will use int math and overflow ( undefined behavior) exp1 += 10 + b; // UB.

  19. Java Compound Assignment Operators

    Java provides some special Compound Assignment Operators, also known as Shorthand Assignment Operators. It's called shorthand because it provides a short way to assign an expression to a variable. ... While writing a program, Shorthand Operators saves some time by changing the large forms into shorts; Also, these operators are implemented ...

  20. C

    A special case scenario for all the compound assigned operators. int i= 2 ; i+= 2 * 2 ; //equals to, i = i+(2*2); In all the compound assignment operators, the expression on the right side of = is always calculated first and then the compound assignment operator will start its functioning. Hence in the last code, statement i+=2*2; is equal to i ...

  21. Assignment Operators in C

    1. "=": This is the simplest assignment operator. This operator is used to assign the value on the right to the variable on the left. Example: a = 10; b = 20; ch = 'y'; 2. "+=": This operator is combination of '+' and '=' operators. This operator first adds the current value of the variable on left to the value on the right and ...
