Short Assignations¶
In addition to the basic assignment operator, there are “combined operators” for all of the binary arithmetic, array union and string operators that allow you to use a value in an expression and then set its value to the result of that expression.
<?php
// incrementing $a by one
$a = $a + 1;
// short assignement for the above syntax
$a += 1;
?>
