Tutorial by Examples: assignment

Assignment arguments appear at the end of an awk invocation, in the same area as file variables, both -v assignments and argument assignments must match the following regular expression. (assuming a POSIX locale) ^[[:alpha:]_][[:alnum:]_]*= The following example assumes a file file containing th...

The left hand operand for these operators must be a either a non-final variable or an element of an array. The right hand operand must be assignment compatible with the left hand operand. This means that either the types must be the same, or the right operand type must be convertible to the left o...

Simple Assignment = is a simple assignment. It creates a new local variable if the variable was not previously referenced. x = 3 y = 4 + 5 puts "x is #{x}, y is #{y}" This will output: x is 3, y is 9 Parallel Assignment Variables can also be assigned in parallel, e.g. x, y = 3,...

The magrittr package contains a compound assignment infix-operator, %<>%, that updates a value by first piping it into one or more rhs expressions and then assigning the result. This eliminates the need to type an object name twice (once on each side of the assignment operator <-). %<&gt...

The assignment operator = sets thr left hand operand's value to the value of right hand operand, and return that value: int a = 3; // assigns value 3 to variable a int b = a = 5; // first assigns value 5 to variable a, then does the same for variable b Console.WriteLine(a = 3 + 4); // prints ...

Assigning string to different string types and how the runtime environment behaves regarding them. Memory allocation, reference counting, indexed access to chars and compiler errors described briefly where applicable. var SS5: string[5]; {a shortstring of 5 chars + 1 length byte, no trailing `0`...

def results = [] (1..4).each{ def what = (it%2) ? 'odd' : 'even' results << what } assert results == ['odd', 'even', 'odd', 'even'] Here, the if-condition (in (parentheses)) is slightly more complex than just testing for existence/Groovy-Truth.

var a = new List<int>(); var b = a; a.Add(5); Console.WriteLine(a.Count); // prints 1 Console.WriteLine(b.Count); // prints 1 as well Assigning to a variable of a List<int> does not create a copy of the List<int>. Instead, it copies the reference to the List<int>. We ...

In assignments, you can split an Iterable into values using the "unpacking" syntax: Destructuring as values a, b = (1, 2) print(a) # Prints: 1 print(b) # Prints: 2 If you try to unpack more than the length of the iterable, you'll get an error: a, b, c = [1] # Raises: ValueError:...

SQL Server 2008 R2 Supported compound operators: += Add and assign -= Subtract and assign *= Multiply and assign /= Divide and assign %= Modulo and assign &= Bitwise AND and assign ^= Bitwise XOR and assign |= Bitwise OR and assign Example usage: DECLARE @test INT = 42; SET @test...

Chaining assignments as part of a var declaration will create global variables unintentionally. For example: (function foo() { var a = b = 0; })() console.log('a: ' + a); console.log('b: ' + b); Will result in: Uncaught ReferenceError: a is not defined 'b: 0' In the above examp...

To assign a value to a previously declared variable, use the assignment operator, =: a = 6; b = "Foo"; As an alternative to independent declaration and assignment, it is possible to perform both steps in one statement: var a = 6; let b = "Foo"; It is in this syntax that...

Increment by var a = 9, b = 3; b += a; b will now be 12 This is functionally the same as b = b + a; Decrement by var a = 9, b = 3; b -= a; b will now be 6 This is functionally the same as b = b - a; Multiply by var a = 5, b = 3; b *= a; b will now...

Powershell allows multiple assignment of variables and treats almost everything like an array or list. This means that instead of doing something like this: $input = "foo.bar.baz" $parts = $input.Split(".") $foo = $parts[0] $bar = $parts[1] $baz = $parts[2] You can simply...

The ?= operator is an extension that behaves like =, except that the assignment only occurs if the variable is not already set. x = hello x ?= world # $(x) will yield "hello"

//Before: antipattern 3 global variables var setActivePage = function () {}; var getPage = function() {}; var redirectPage = function() {}; //After: just 1 global variable, no function collision and more meaningful function names var NavigationNs = NavigationNs || {}; N...

Sinse structs are value types all the data is copied on assignment, and any modification to the new copy does not change the data for the original copy. The code snippet below shows that p1 is copied to p2 and changes made on p1 does not affect p2 instance. var p1 = new Point { x = 1, y =...

All programming languages allow us to assign values to variables. Usually, a value is assigned to variable, standing on left side. The prototype of the overall assignment operations in any contemporary programming language looks like this: left_operand assignment_operand right_operand instructions_...

The Assignment Operator is when you replace the data with an already existing(previously initialized) object with some other object's data. Lets take this as an example: // Assignment Operator #include <iostream> #include <string> using std::cout; using std::endl; class Foo { ...

Ok we have briefly looked over what the copy constructor and assignment constructor are above and gave examples of each now let's see both of them in the same code. This code will be similar as above two. Let's take this : // Copy vs Assignment Constructor #include <iostream> #include <s...
