The += assignment operator?
Hey guys I have a quick question. Could anyone explain to me what the += does and how it works? I have seen it in different examples that use arrays but I still don't get what it's supposed to do.
Here is an example I saw in my book:
a[5] = 10; i = 5; a[i++] += 2;

These two are functionally equivalent:
a += expr
a = a + (expr)
Same goes for all the other blah-equals operators (-=, *=, ...etc).
