is there any way in Python to simply add or subtract one from a
variable like i++ or i--? I don't mind doing a i = i + 1, but would
prefer something more simple and faster.
Out of curiosity, why are you incrementing variables?
Actually, it is mostly just my curiosity :) I'm designing my first
major Python program (It will run a EnGarde PBEM for me). I had to make
a loop to loop around 5 times and was going to use the i += 1 when I
remembered range :) I did the following instead and it worked perfectly.
for l in range(1,6):
print l
I will, eventually, be needing the i+= 1 as in the game many times I
will needing to take away or add to attributes. I have attached what I
got so far if you feel like taking a look, but it is probably nasty by
your standards :)
Thanks everyone for your answers. I'll probably have a few more
questions before I finish this project.
