Type OperatorSwiftFoundationSwift

    &-=(_:_:)

    Subtracts the second value from the first and stores the difference in the left-hand-side variable, wrapping any overflow.

    static func &-= (lhs: inout Self, rhs: Self)

    Parameters

    lhs

    A numeric value.

    rhs

    The value to subtract from lhs.

    Overview

    The masking subtraction assignment operator (&-=) silently wraps any overflow that occurs during the operation. In the following example, the difference of 10 and 21 is less than zero, the minimum representable UInt value, so the result is the result is the partial value after discarding the overflowing bits.

    var x: Int8 = 21
x &-= 10
// x == 11
var y: UInt8 = 10
y &-= 21
// y == 245 (after overflow)
