Description
Operator (arithmetic compound assignment); assigns expression1 the value of expression1 +

. For example, the following two statements have the same result:
x += y;
x = x + y;
This operator also performs string concatenation. All the rules of the addition operator (+) apply
to the addition assignment
(+=) operator.
Example
The following example shows a numeric use of the += operator.
x = 5;
y = 10;
x += y;
trace(x);
//x returns 15
This example uses the
+= operator with a string expression and sends "My name is Gilbert" to the
Output panel.
x = "My name is "
x += "Gilbert"
trace (x)
// returns "My name is Gilbert"
