Subject: using count += 1, code won't change value in output

This is supposed to count every line in a file that contails the string
'0004343' however, when I use the puts it will only output 1 and 0. My
file contains 8 instances of '0004343' so I know that this isn't right.
I was thinking that it never changes the value to what happens to it in
the while loop. I know this is probably really simple. I just can't get
it. Please help me? MC

@count = 1
 @total = 0
  while line = f1.gets
    if f1.gets =~ /0004343/ then
     @total = @count+= 1
    end
 end
puts @count
puts @total
