Increment Operators in Python
There are no increment(++) or decrement(–) operators in programming. If we need to increment or decrement the value of a variably by 1, then we can use the increment assignment(+=) or decrement assignment(-=) operators. Below is the implementation:
x = 5
# Prefix increment: increment x by 1 and then print the
# value (6)
print(x + 1)
x += 1
# Postfix increment: print the value of x (6) and then
# increment x by 1
print(x)
x += 1
# Output: 7
print(x)
Output
6 6 7
Increment and Decrement Operators in Programming
Increment and Decrement Operators are Unary Operators commonly used in programming to increase or decrease the value of a variable by one, respectively. They provide a shorthand way to perform these common operations.
