#39692 [Csd->Bgs]: [chm] bug on language.operators.html

ID: 39692 Updated by: arpad@php.net Reported By: RQuadling@php.net -Status: Closed +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: windows PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: You're confusing the bitwise AND assignment operator (&=) with assigning a reference. $a &= $b; can be rewritten as: $a = $a & $b; Assigning a reference uses two separate operators, = and &, so it's not listed individually.
