RS.CLIPPY.SUSPICIOUS_ASSIGNMENT_FORMATTING

Suspicious formatting of `*=`, `-=` or `!=`

This checker is a Clippy lint created by The Rust Project Contributors. The documentation shown here is a copy of the original documentation for: suspicious_assignment_formatting. Copyright ©2025 The Rust Team. All rights reserved.

What it does

Checks for usage of the non-existent =*, =! and =- operators.

Why is this bad?

This is either a typo of *=, != or -= or confusing.

Example

a =- 42; // confusing, should it be `a -= 42` or `a = -42`?
