Use ++ over += 1 #76

Closed kevmoo closed 3 years ago

filiph commented 3 years ago

Thanks Kevin, but is there a strong reason for this change? I have this notion ingrained in me, possibly way back from C++ days, that one should prefer explicit += 1 over the increment operator. It's only 2 more characters, it's clear what it does (assignment), and there's no way you are tempted to put it into some other arithmetic operation and get in some trickiness.

I realize it might be an outdated idea. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not a big deal for me at all. I just thought it was funny
