Assignment Operators:



  The operators which are used to assign a value (i.e., result of an expression) to an operand are called Assignment Operators.

The following are assignment operators



Operator

example

Let x=7 and y=4

=

x = y

x=y=4

i.e., x=4

+=

x += y
       x= x + y                i.e., x=7+4=11

-=

x -=y

x=x-y

i.e., x=7-4=3

*=

x*=y

x=x*y

i.e., x=7*4=28

/=

x/=y

x=x/y

i.e., x=7/4=1 (assume x and y are integers.)

%=

x%=y

x=x%y

i.e., x=7%4=3
