== The Basic Assignment Operator ==

We have already looked at the most basic of assignment operators, the = operator. This assignment operator simply assigns the result of an expression to a variable. In essence the = assignment operator takes two operands. The left hand operand is the variable to which a value is to be assigned and the right hand operand is the value to be assigned. The right hand operand is, more often than not an expression which performs some type of arithmetic or logical evaluation. The following examples are all valid uses of the assignment operator:

<pre>

<pre>

x = 10;  // Assigns the value 10 to a variable named x

x = 10;  // Assigns the value 10 to a variable named x

x = y + z; // Assigns the result of variable y added to variable z to variable x;

x = y + z; // Assigns the result of variable y added to variable z to variable x

x = y;  // Assigns the value of variable y to variable x

x = y;  // Assigns the value of variable y to variable x
