Multiplication Assignment Operator(*=) in JavaScript is used to multiply two operands and assign the result to the right operand.
Syntax:
variable1 *= variable2 // variable1 = variable1 * variable2
Example 1: In this example, we multiply two numerical values using the Multiplication Assignment Operator(*=) and assign the result variable in javascript.
JavaScript
let number = 5;
number *= 2;
console.log(number);
// Expected output:10
Output:
10
Example 2: Here we perform multiplication with a non-Numeric value and it will return NaN using the Multiplication Assignment Operator(*=) in javascript.
JavaScript
let number = 10;
number *= "GeeksforGeeks";
console.log(number);
// Expected outout: NaN
Output:
NaN
