Assignment Operators
Assignment operators are used to assign values to variables.
In the example below, we use the assignment operator ( = ) to assign the value 10 to a variable called x :
Example
package main
import ("fmt")
func main() {
var x = 10
fmt.Println(x)
}The addition assignment operator ( += ) adds a value to a variable:
Example
package main
import ("fmt")
func main() {
var x = 10
x +=5
fmt.Println(x)
}A list of all assignment operators
| Operator | Example | Same As | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| = | x = 5 | x = 5 | ||
| += | x += 3 | x = x + 3 | ||
| -= | x -= 3 | x = x - 3 | ||
| *= | x *= 3 | x = x * 3 | ||
| /= | x /= 3 | x = x / 3 | ||
| %= | x %= 3 | x = x % 3 | ||
| &= | x &= 3 | x = x & 3 | ||
| = | x | = 3 | x = x | 3 |
| ^= | x ^= 3 | x = x ^ 3 | ||
| >>= | x >>= 3 | x = x >> 3 | ||
| <<= | x <<= 3 | x = x << 3 |
