Just like post increment do we have a post assignment in java?

Question

I wish to change(assign) the value of an element at an index in an array:

a=array[index];
array[index]=0;

Can this be done in one line, like a post/pre increment?

Answer 1

Based from your question, you want to assign the value from the array and put it on a different variable. and then you want to assign something into it in just one line of code.

//I'm assuming that both array and variable a is initialized
array[index] = a + -array[index] + (a = array[index]); 

Answer 2

Yes you can do this by calling this

int[] array = {0,0,0};
