      Infoplus Scripts Operators

      When working with scripts within Infoplus you may encounter an instance when you need to use an operator.

      This article will list the most commonly used JavaScript operators available to Infoplus. 


      Infoplus Support can help with general questions about how scripting works. For help with a specific script or its outputs, you will need to submit a Pro Services request for paid support. Pro Service request form can be found here.

      Logical Operators

      Operator Description Example
      && and (x < 10 && y > 1) is true
      || or (x === 5 || y === 5) is false
      ! not !(x === y) is true

      Arithmetic Operators

      Operator Description Example Result in y Result in x
      + Addition x = y + 2 y = 5 x = 7
      - Subtraction x = y - 2 y = 5 x = 3
      * Multiplication x = y * 2 y = 5 x = 10
      / Division x = y / 2 y = 5 x = 2.5
      % Modulus (division remainder) x = y % 2 y = 5 x = 1
      ++ Increment x = ++y y = 6 x = 6
      x = y++ y = 6 x = 5
      -- Decrement x = --y y = 4 x = 4
      x = y-- y = 4 x = 5

      Assignment Operators

      Operator Example Same As Result in x
      = x = y x = y x = 5
      += x += y x = x + y x = 15
      -= x -= y x = x - y x = 5
      *= x *= y x = x * y x = 50
      /= x /= y x = x / y x = 2
      %= x %= y x = x % y x = 0

      String Operators

      Operator Example text1 text2 text3
      + text3 = text1 + text2 "Good " "Morning"  "Good Morning"
      += text1 += text2 "Good Morning" "Morning" ""

      Comparison Operators

      Operator Description Comparing Returns
      == equal to x == 8 false
      x == 5 true
      === equal value and equal type x === "5" false
      x === 5 true
      != not equal x != 8 true
      !== not equal value or not equal type x !== "5" true
      x !== 5 false
      > greater than x > 8 false
      < less than x < 8 true
      >= greater than or equal to x >= 8 false
      <= less than or equal to x <= 8 true
