What exactly does += do in python?

Python

I need to know what += does in python. It's that simple. I also would appreciate links to definitions of other shorthand tools in python.

+= is an add and assign operator in python. It adds the value of the left operand by the value given on the right, and then assign the new value back to the left operand. Here is an example of it.



a = 5


a += 20


print("a += 20 is", a)



The output will be,



a += 20 is 25



You can find all the available symbols and their definitions here - https://docs.python.org/3/genindex-Symbols.html
