Update mathematical-operations.rst

I added a note that the updating-operators can change the type.  This is implicit in the current manual, but it nonetheless threw me for a loop the first time it happened to me (this is different, e.g., from C++), so I thought it should be made explicit.

+It should be noted that updating operators can change the type of the variable.  For example, after the first 
+statement below, ``x`` is of type ``Uint32``, but after the second statement, it is of type ``Int``::
+
+ 
+    x = 0x00000001
+    x *= 2
+ 
+ 
+This is in consistent with the equivalence between ``x *= 2`` and ``x = x * 2``: any assignment statement to
+a plain variable may change its type.
