Question

What does += stand for In Python?

Answer 1

+= should be in all langs the same thing.

Lets say you have

a = 0;
b = 1;
a += b; // this is 1

Basically it means a = a + b; It's just afaster way to to say make this statement add itself, AND another variable.

Answer 2

Thanks for that. So a way of editing a variable by adding b to itself... Gotcha!
