Hello All!

I keep coming across lines of code like this:



Why is there a dot before the equals sign? What does it do? It doesn’t seem to make any difference whether I leave it in or not. Is it for good luck? Does it keep the bugs away?

Seriously, I presume it’s there for a reason. Someone please enlighten me!

Hi Sponge Belly,

good question, as far as I know there is no special meaning or behaviour for a dot or any other character here.
You can use any or none.
I only use the dot for aesthetic reasons.

Hi Jeb!

Thanks for clearing that up for me.
