Assignment Operators is used to assign values to the variable.
| Operator | Description | Syntax |
| Equal (=) | It assign value of right side of expression to left side operand. | a = b + c |
| Add AND(+=) | It add right side operand with left side operand and then assign to left operand. |
a += b a = a + b |
| Subtract AND(-=) | It subtracts right operand from the left operand and assign the result to left operand. |
a -= b a = a - b |
| Multiply AND(*=) | It multiplies right operand with the left operand and assign the result to left operand. |
a *= b a = a * b |
| Divide AND(/=) | It divides left operand with the right operand and assign the result to left operand. |
a /= b a = a / b |
| Modulus AND(%=) | It takes modulus using two operands and assign the result to left operand. |
a %= b a = a % b |
| Exponent AND(**=) | It performs exponential on operators and assign value to the left operand. |
a **= b a = a ** b |
| Floor Division(//=) | It performs floor division on operators and assign value to the left operand. |
a //= b a = a // b |
| Bitwise AND(&=) | It performs Bitwise and on operands and assign value to left operand. |
a &= b a = a & b |
| Bitwise xOR(^=) | It performs Bitwise xOR on operands and assign value to left operand. |
a ^= b a = a ^ b |
| Bitwise OR(|=) | It performs Bitwise OR on operands and assign value to left operand. |
a |= b a = a | b |
| Bitwise Right Shift (>>=) | It performs Bitwise right shift on operands and assign value to left operand. |
a >>= b . a = a >> b |
| Bitwise Left Shift(<<=) | It performs Bitwise left shift on operands and assign value to left operand. |
a <<= b a= a << b |
Example:
a = 4
b = 3
d = e = f = 0
g = h = i = j = 2
k = l = m = n = o = 3
c = a + b
print("c = ",c)
d += a
print("d = ",d)
e -= b
print("e = ",d)
f *= a
print("f = ",f)
g /= b
print("g = ",g)
h %= b
print("h = ",h)
i **= a
print("i = ",i)
j //= a
print("j = ",j)
k &= b
print("k = ",k)
l ^= b
print("l = ",l)
m |= b
print("m = ",m)
n >>= b
print("n = ",n)
o <<= a
print("o = ",o)
Output:
c = 7 d = 4 e = 4 f = 0 g = 0.6666666666666666 h = 2 i = 16 j = 0 k = 3 l = 0 m = 3 n = 0 o = 48
