Operator

&+=(_:_:)

Adds two values and stores the result in the left-hand-side variable, wrapping any overflow.

Declaration

static func &+= (lhs: inout Int, rhs: Int)

Parameters

lhs

The first value to add.

rhs

The second value to add.

Discussion

The masking addition assignment operator (&+=) silently wraps any overflow that occurs during the operation. In the following example, the sum of 100 and 121 is greater than the maximum representable Int8 value, so the result is the partial value after discarding the overflowing bits.

var x: Int8 = 10
x &+= 21
// x == 31
var y: Int8 = 100
y &+= 121
// y == -35 (after overflow)
