Assign (Update)
This operator is used to update node values. It can be used in either the:
plain form: =
Which will set the LHS node values equal to the RHS node values. The RHS expression is run against the matching nodes in the pipeline.
relative form: |=
This will do a similar thing to the plain form, but the RHS expression is run with each LHS node as context. This is useful for updating values based on old values, e.g. increment.
