The Python Assignment Operators are used to assign the values to the declared variables. Equals (=) operator is the most commonly used assignment operator in Python. For example:
|
1 |
i = 10 |
Below table displays all the assignment operators present in Python language.
| Python Assignment Operators | Example | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| = | x = 25 | Value 25 is assigned to x |
| += | x += 25 | This is same as x = x + 25 |
| -= | x -= 25 | This is same as x = x – 25 |
| *= | x *= 25 | This is same as x = x * 25 |
| /= | x /= 25 | This is same as x = x / 25 |
| %= | x %= 25 | This is same as x = x % 25 |
| //= | x //= 25 | This is same as x = x // 25 |
| **= | x **= 25 | This is same as x = x ** 25 |
| &= | x &= 25 | This is same as x = x & 25 |
| |= | x |= 25 | This is same as x = x | 25 |
| ^= | x ^= 25 | This is same as x = x ^ 25 |
| <<= | x <<= 25 | This is same as x = x << 25 |
| >>= | x >>= 25 | This is same as x = x >> 25 |
Python Assignment Operators Example
For this example, We are using four variables a, Total, x, y and their values are 7, 21, 9 and 65. We are going to use these four variables to show you the working functionality of all the Python Assignment Operators with example

OUTPUT
ANALYSIS
In this program, We declared 2 integer values a, Total and we assigned values 7 and 21 respectively.
|
1 2 |
a = 7 Total = 21 |
Below print statements will display the output of the Total after using Python Assignment Operators on a and Total
Let us see the functionalities
First assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
Total += a # Using += Operator print("The Value of the Total after using += Operator is: ", Total) |
Total += a means
Total = Total + a ⇒ 21 + 7 = 28
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 28
Second assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
Total -= a # Using -= Operator print("The Value of the Total after using -= Operator is: ", Total) |
Total -= a means
Total = Total – a ⇒ 28 – 7 = 21
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 21
Third assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
Total *= a # Using *= Operator print("The Value of the Total after using *= Operator is: ", Total) |
Total *= a means
Total = Total * a ⇒ 21 * 7 = 147
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 147
Fourth assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
Total //= a # Using //= Operator print("The Value of the Total after using //= Operator is: ", Total) |
Total //= a means
Total = Total // a ⇒ 147 // 7 = 21
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 21
Fifth assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
Total **= a # Using **= Operator print("The Value of the Total after using **= Operator is: ", Total) |
Total **= a means
Total = Total ** a ⇒ 21*21*21 *21*21*21*21 = 1,801,088,541
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 1,801,088,541
Sixth assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
Total /= a # Using /= Operator >>> print("The Value of the Total after using /= Operator is: ", Total) |
Total /= a means
Total = Total / a ⇒ 1,801,088,541 / 7 = 257,298,363
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 257,298,363
Seventh assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
Total %= a # Using %= Operator print("The Value of the Total after using %= Operator is: ", Total) |
Total %= a means
Total = Total % a ⇒257,298,363 % 7 = 0 (because Remainder of 257,298,363 /7 is = 0)
In the next line, We declared 2 integer values x, y and we assigned values 9 and 65 respectively.
|
1 2 |
x = 9 y = 65 |
Eighth assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
x &= y # Using &= Operator print("The Value of the x after using &= Operator is: ", x) |
x &= y means
x = x & y ⇒ 9 & 65
⇒ 00001001 & 01000001 = 00000001 ⇒ 1
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 1. Please refer Python Bitwise Operators for better understanding
Ninth assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
x |= 9 # Using |= Operator print("The Value of the x after using |= Operator is: ", x) |
x |= y means
x = x | y ⇒ 1 | 9
⇒ 00000001 | 00001001 = 00001001 ⇒ 9
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 9
Tenth assignment operator functionality,
|
1 2 |
x ^= y # Using ^= Operator >>> print("The Value of the x after using ^= Operator is: ", x) |
x ^= y means
x = x ^ y ⇒ 9 ^65
⇒ 00001001 ^ 01000001 = 01001000 ⇒ 72
So, the output of the above mentioned print statement will be 72
