Forums Developers += operator?

variable += blah

is that simply:

variable = variable + blah

Yes, but how this is related to mIRC ?

Sorry, I'm just trying to convert some other languages implementation into mirc. Thanks for the verification

what's wrong with

Nothing, the point is that he wasn't aware or sure about what += means

I dont understand. Is this supposed to do something besides set %variable to 1?

Using literally as written there will end up making a variable called %variable and will give it a value of 1

However, my example was based upon the general information given in the original post.

Thus %variable is any variable name and blah is any value

For further information, I suggest you check the mIRC help file using /help /inc

Yeah I know the inc command. I was wondering what it had to do with the += operator. I thought you were trying to say inc would attach whatever string you have to the variable.

+= is not string concatenation if the context is numbers
