The assignment (
=
) operator is used to assign a value to a variable or property. The assignment expression itself has a value, which is the assigned value. This allows multiple assignments to be chained in order to assign a single value to multiple variables.(c) MDN
🐊Putout plugin adds ability to find and split variable declarations because (re)moving a line is simpler and less error prone then changing coma (=
) to colon (;
).
For the same reason, diff of changed declarations are more comfortable to read. Checkout in 🐊Putout Editor.
npm i @putout/plugin-split-assignment-expressions
{
"rules": {
"split-assignment-expressions": "on"
}
}
a = b = c = 1;
a = 1;
b = a;
c = a;
