Short hand assignments are just sugar syntax and are not available in all languages, say Lua

Orek12997ycount = count + 1 or count += 1 is definately better practise on javascript than count++ or ++count depending on douglas crockford's opinions

kidk657ycount = count + 1 feels more readable to me. Anything to reduce cognitive load while reading code.

@Orek meh. I take everyone's opinion with a grain of salt, and I don't get why people wouldn't like ++. It literally does one thing, increment. It does it in most languages, and it literally translates to a single statement in assembly.

DrEmann2537yThat's the problem with ++.. It doesn't just increment. It also returns the previous or new value.
I find statements such as, `count = count + 1` very annoying >_<
