# V7014\. An identical expression to the left and to the right of a compound assignment\.

The analyzer has detected that identical expressions surround a compound assignment operator \(\+\=, \-\=, \*\=, \\\=\)\. The operation may be incorrect, or it can be simplified\.

The example:

```cpp
x += x + 5
```

In this case, it is intended to add `5` to the `x` variable, but incorrectly specified the `x` variable twice\. 

The fixed code:

```cpp
x += 5
```

Most likely, the code is correct, but it is recommended to rewrite it to enhance readability: two additions of `x` can be replaced with a multiplication by `2`\. 

More readable option:

```cpp
x = x * 2 + 5;
```
