Assignment operators set the value of the right operand to the left operand. The most basic assignment operator that is found everywhere is =
Here, using the operator = we set the value of the age
variable. Also, you can simultaneously assign a value to several variables at once.
= — is right-associative operator, it means that first initializes z
, then y
, then x
. Let’s consider other assignment operators:
- += — addition assignment; Same as
x = x + 5;
- -= — subtraction assignment; Same as
x = x — 4;
- *= — multiplication assignment; Same as
x = x * 3;
- /= — division assignment; Same as
x = x / 2;
- %= — modulo assignment; Same as
x = x % 5;
Of course, C# has more assignment operators, but we’ll look at them later so you know how to use them.
