JavaScript Assignment Operators - Assignment Operators in JavaScript
JavaScript Assignment Operators
- Assignment operators assign values to JavaScript variables.
Operator | Example | Same As |
---|---|---|
= | x = y | x *= y |
+= | x += y | x = x + y |
-= | x -= y | x = x - y |
*= | x *= y | x = x * y |
/= | x /= y | x = x / y |
%= | x %= y | x = x % y |
**= | x **= y | x = x ** y |
Shift Assignment Operators
Operator | Example | Same As |
---|---|---|
<<= | x <<= y | x = x << y |
>>= | x >>= y | x = x >> y |
>>>= | x >>>= y | x = x >>> y |
Bitwise Assignment Operators
Operator | Example | Same As |
---|---|---|
&= | x &= y | x = x & y |
^= | x ^= y | x = x ^ y |
|= | x |= y | x = x | y |
Logical Assignment Operators
Operator | Example | Same As |
---|---|---|
&&= | x &&= y | x = x && (x = y) |
||= | x ||= y | x = x || (x = y) |
??= | x ??= y | x = x ?? (x = y) |
The = Operator
- The Simple Assignment Operator assigns a value to a variable.
Sample Code
Output
The += Operator
- The Addition Assignment Operator adds a value to a variable.
Sample Code
Output
The -= Operator
- The Subtraction Assignment Operator subtracts a value from a variable.
Sample Code
Output
The *= Operator
- The Multiplication Assignment Operator multiplies a variable.
Sample Code
Output
The **= Operator
- The Exponentiation Assignment Operator raises a varable to the power of the operand.
Sample Code
Output
The /= Operator
- The Division Assignment Operator divides a variable.
Sample Code
Output
The %= Operator
- The Remainder Assignment Operator assigns a remainder to a variable.
Sample Code
Output
The <<= Operator
- The Left Shift Assignment Operator left shifts a variable.
Sample Code
Output
The >>= Operator
- The Right Shift Assignment Operator right shifts a variable (signed).
Sample Code
Output
The >>>= Operator
- The Unsigned Right Shift Assignment Operator right shifts a variable (unsigned).
Sample Code
Output
The &= Operator
- The Bitwise AND Assignment Operator does a bitwise AND operation on two operands and assigns the result to the the variable.
Sample Code
Output
The |= Operator
- The Bitwise OR Assignment Operator does a bitwise OR operation on two operands and assigns the result to the variable.
Sample Code
Output
The ^= Operator
- The Bitwise XOR Assignment Operator does a bitwise XOR operation on two operands and assigns the result to the variable.
Sample Code
Output
The &&= Operator
- The Logical AND assignment operator is used between two values.
- If the first value is true, the second value is assigned.
Sample Code
Output
The ||= Operator
- The Logical OR assignment operator is used between two values.
- If the first value is false, the second value is assigned.
Sample Code
Output
The ??= Operator
- The Nullish coalescing assignment operator is used between two values.
- If the first value is undefined or null, the second value is assigned.
