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. 


Due to the ever-changing nature of writing and maintaining scripts, Infoplus does not provide support in this area. We recommend someone in your IT Department handles scripting requests internally so that you keep all control over the process.

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
