+= (i.e. increment)
This assignment operator is a convenient shorthand for incrementing an attribute. For example, the two following statements are equivalent:
$MyNumber += 3;
$MyNumber = $MyNumber + 3;
This operator may also be used with Lists and Sets, and += may be used to append strings:
$MyString += "!"
