javascript - Adding the sum of variable to itself - Stack Overflow

文章数量:1025485

I have something like var num = 10; and I'm trying to get the sum of this number added to itself on a click function.

So it will be 10; then on click: 20; and on another click: 30; and 40; etc...

Using ++ gives me 11, 12, ... and adding the var to itself is 10, 20, 40, 80,...

If you add the variable to itself without storing its original value somewhere, you can't keep adding that value because it has been forgotten.

let x = 10;
let originalX = x;
x += originalX; // 20
x += originalX; // 30
x += originalX; // 40

You're looking for the addition assignment operator aka +=:

var display = document.querySelector('#txtDisplay');
var btn = document.querySelector('#btnIncrement');

let i = 10;
display.setAttribute('value', i);

//calling will increase the value of i by whatever is passed to the outer most function (in this case, the original value of i)
const increment = (function(amount) {
  return function() {
    i += amount;
  }
}(i));

btn.addEventListener('click', () => {
  increment();
  display.setAttribute('value', i);
});

<label>Current value:
  <input id="txtDisplay" type="text" readonly="readonly"/>
</label>
<input id="btnIncrement" type="button" value="Increment" />

You need to use Addition Assignment operator +=

var num = 10,
 org_num = num;
document.getElementById('inc').addEventListener('click', function() {
 num += org_num;
 console.log(num);
});

<button id="inc">Increment</button>

Use Closures.

var increment = (() => {
 var firstValue, currentValue;
 firstValue = currentValue = parseInt(document.getElementById('myValue').innerHTML);
 return function(ev) {
    currentValue += firstValue;
    document.getElementById('myValue').innerHTML = currentValue;
 }
})();

<button onclick="increment()">Add my first value.</button>
<p id='myValue'>10</p>

I have something like var num = 10; and I'm trying to get the sum of this number added to itself on a click function.

So it will be 10; then on click: 20; and on another click: 30; and 40; etc...
