Incrementing and Decrementing
Look at the table to understand how to minimize the writing of mathematical operators!
| Formula | How to minimize |
|---|---|
a = a + 1 | a += 1 |
a = a - 1 | a -= 1 |
a = a * 2 | a *= 2 |
a = a / 2 | a /= 2 |
Consider list of prices named prices. If price is greater than 30, then the 25% discount must be set. If not, then price must be reduced by 3. Check out how can we do it with the for loop.
