What is the multiply-by-value operator?

Rating:

The multiply-by-value operator is an assignment operator. Its sign is *=. When this operator is used, the operands on the right side are multiplied and the result is assigned to the left operand. Let us see this by an example.

x*=y

This statement means x=x*y.

If the value of x is 2 and the value of y is 5, the result value will be 10, and it will be assigned to x.
