The gory details about how Python understands this expression can be found in:
http://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#augmented-assignment-statements
Technically, "3 + 4" is the "expression list" part of the statement,
so it gets evaluated. Then it does the multiplication of the target
(d) and the value of the expression list (7).
