Often times, variables act as counters that we increase or decrease by 1. There's a shortcut for that as well.

Great work! We can increment or decrement a variable's value by placing a ++ or -- operator before or after the variable.

Psst: there's a slight difference between the operators that we'll have a look at a little later.

While the compound assignment operator is certainly an option, might there be an even shorter shortcut?
