That's fine as long as it's done with adequate discipline
i += 2; /* add one more bloofus to i */
Gotta add a couple of words explaining
the *context* - WHY you are incrementing
the var by 2, not one or three. Did a
recent little app where you needed to inc
by two ... and the comment explained why.
Oh, I usually write "i=i+2". It's a bit more
clear and becomes the same code anyway. +=
is more a 'C' thing.
