</div>"+=" is a bit confusing, but then I don't think it's more so than using<br>
"+" as a string concatenation operator.<br>
<br>
So please vote or propose an alternative:<br>
<br>
0. a += 1;<br>
1. a ++= 1;<br>
2. a ++ 1;<br>
3. a << 1;<br>
4. a[] = 1;<br>
5. a .= 1; (that would make more sense if "." meant concatenation in<br>
swift).<br>
