<h2>Syntax</h2>
<p><div class="box">
<dl>
<dt><nobr>(<b>incf</b> <i>symbol</i>)</nobr></dt>
<dd><i>symbol</i> - a symbol with numerical value bound to it<br>
returns - the new value of the symbol</dd>
</dl>
</div></p>
<p>In Nyquist, 'incf' is implemented as a Lisp macro:</p>
<pre class="example">
(defmacro <font color="#0000CC">incf</font> (symbol)
`(setf ,symbol (1+ ,symbol)))
</pre>
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>The 'incf' macro is used for incrementing a numerical value of a variable.
<nobr>1 is</nobr> added to the number and the result is stored in the
variable. <nobr>An error</nobr> is signalled if the variable doesn't hold a
number.</p>
<h2>Examples</h2>
<pre class="example">
(setq n 1) => 1
(incf n) => 2
n => 2
(incf n) => 3
(setq n -1.8) => -1.8
(incf n) => -0.8
(incf n) => 0.2
(incf n) => 1.2
n => 1.2
(setq n #\a) => #\a
(incf a) => <font color="#AA0000">error: bad argument type - #\a</font>
