Subject: [PATCH] Added JavaScript syntax, corrected capitalization & sentence.
 (#23684)

* Added JavaScript syntax, corrected sentence.


Corrected / Added:

 The other assignment operators "are usually" shorthand "methods" for performing "standard" operations using the variable (indicated by x above) and value (indicated by y above) and then assigning the result to the variable itself.

Added:

 JavaScript syntax to "Examples" and "Variations" .

Corrected:

The operator table title by adding an "A" and a capital S to JavaScript.

* fix: escaped bitwise OR operator

     let initialVar = 5;   // Variable initialization requires the use of an assignment operator

 ## Variations

+The other assignment operators are usually shorthand methods for performing standard operations using the variable (indicated by x above) and value (indicated by y above) and then assigning the result to the variable itself.
 
 For example, below is the syntax for the addition assignment operator:
-
+```javascript
     x += y;
-
+```
 This is the same as applying the addition operator and reassigning the sum to the original variable (i.e., x), which can be expressed by the following code:
-
+```javascript
     x = x + y;
-
+```
 To illustrate this using actual values, here is another example of using the addition assignment operator:
-
+```javascript
     let myVar = 5;   // value of myVar: 5
     myVar += 7;   // value of myVar: 5 + 7 = 12
